How to properly and for once reinstall PHP/Apache

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

So I'm struggeling with this since a long time and I'd like to find a proper solution.

I have php5.4.. install and I want to upgrade to Php 7.

No matter how hard I'm trying to do it I can't seems to touch my goal. I tried to remove php54 and other with homebrew, to remove it manually by command line, to overwrite it with new version nothing work. What ever Im doing when I type php -v I always end up with php5.4 :

Marjorie:~ Mawel$ php -v
PHP 5.4.45 (cli) (built: Sep  6 2015 20:56:23) 
Copyright (c) 1997-2014 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.4.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2014 Zend Technologies

So I'm asking my self have I messed up with my php/apache conf ? Shall I try a clean-install of my system and would it be efficient ? I don't know ! I'm kinda lost and really need some help even for comprehension (is there a reason I can't get rid of old php version ?)

Anything would be helpful

Edit

So here is more information for answering the questions :

Output of brew tap

Marjorie:~ Mawel$ brew tap
homebrew/dupes
homebrew/php
homebrew/versions

As of what I've tried with home brew : So here is step by step the idea :

brew remove php54
brew install php70
brew link php70
Warning: Already linked: /usr/local/Cellar/php70/7.0.4

Lets add this information :

Marjorie:~ Mawel$ sudo find ~/ -iname "php"

Marjorie:~ Mawel$ vi ~/.bash_profile

alias composer="php /usr/local/bin/composer.phar"
PATH="/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
export PATH
export PATH=~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH
export PATH="/usr/local/mysql/bin:$PATH"

source ~/.profile
