Php-intl Installation for XAMPP on Mac OS

To resolve the issue of installing the intl extension in php while using XAMPP on Mac, follow these steps:

1. Confirm PHP Path:

   • Execute which php to determine the PHP path used. For XAMPP, it should be /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/php. If it's different (e.g., /usr/bin/php), update your OS X path using PATH="/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin:${PATH}".

4. Verify Installation:

   • Check if the intl extension was successfully installed by running php -m | grep intl. It should return 'intl'.

5. Enable Extension in XAMPP:

   • In the /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/etc/php.ini file, add or uncomment the line extension=intl.so.

6. Restart Apache:

   • Restart the Apache server in XAMPP to apply the changes.

Additional Notes:
