Created page with "Running Commands First, open the Terminal app and switch to the root user so you can run the commands in this post without any permission issues: sudo su - Enable Apache on M..."

New page

Running Commands
First, open the Terminal app and switch to the root user so you can run the commands in this post without any permission issues:

sudo su -
Enable Apache on Mac OS X
apachectl start
Verify It works! by accessing http://localhost

Enable PHP for Apache
Make a backup of the default Apache configuration. This is good practice and serves as a comparison against future versions of Mac OS X.

<pre>cd /etc/apache2/
cp httpd.conf httpd.conf.bak</pre>

Now edit the Apache configuration. Feel free to use TextEdit if you are not familiar with vi.

<pre>vi httpd.conf</pre>

Uncomment the following line (remove #) - press X over the letter and save with :wq

LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
Restart Apache:

<pre>apachectl restart</pre>

You can verify PHP is enabled by creating a phpinfo() page in your DocumentRoot.

The default DocumentRoot for Mac OS X El Capitan is /Library/WebServer/Documents. You can verify this from your Apache configuration.

grep DocumentRoot httpd.conf
Now create the phpinfo() page in your DocumentRoot:

echo '<?php phpinfo();' > /Library/WebServer/Documents/phpinfo.php
Verify PHP by accessing http://localhost/phpinfo.php

<pre>cd /path/to/project/folder
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080</pre>

		+
		+	what this guy said:
		+
		+	Trying to get apache2 working I get the following error message:
		+
		+	AH00526: Syntax error on line 20 of /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-mpm.conf: Invalid command 'LockFile', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration.
		+
		+	It says LockFile is a correct directive. I don't know why I'm getting the same error you are. So in terminal, I went to:
		+
		+	/etc/apache2/extra
		+	and restored the httpd-mpm.conf file from before I loaded El Capitan. I used these commands:
		+
		+	sudo mv httpd-mpm.conf httpd-mpm.conf.elcapitan
		+	sudo mv httpd-mpm.conf~orig httpd-mpm.conf
		+	and entered the commands:
		+
		+	sudo apachectl restart
		+	apachectl configtest
		+	and got "Syntax OK"
		+
		+	If I enter http://localhost in my browser, I get the page "it works".
