If you want to check, just go in the finder, type Cmd+Shift+G (Go to.) and simply type /local/ then enter. let's go with curl and to the terminal and then, enter this: So, update: there several ways to do so, with homebrew, git, curl, etc. When you don't, you feel like a chicken who just finds a fork. Which can lead, sometimes, to weird situations like 'why this app is telling me I got php 5.x while this other one is telling me I got php 7.1.4 ?'. You have to install another php next to the built-in php and tell the Apache server to use this new one insteand of the old one. Thing is: you CAN NOT update the built in php. But your php version is too old, right ? You want to update it anyway, let's say, to php 7.1. In macOS Server, the Apache server is controlled by the server app, where you can activate php by clicking on the right box. Believe me, I spent weeks (yeah, really, weeks.) trying to figure out why all these tutos lead to a dead end. It means the tutos and infos you'll find on the net will not be accurate, because they mostly mostly talk about macOS 'not server', the 'normal' version. Get this in mind: macOS Server is NOT macOS. You can find it in the Applications folder, in your hard disk. ! As the one you got built-in is a php 5.xĪbout moodle, I only test it with 3.3 and 3.4 beta but I think it's safe to say it can be used with 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 version.įor those who wonder what's this app Terminal I'm gonna use, it allows to send Unix commands to the system. Same thing if you're on Sierra and wanna go for moodle 3.3 or +.

If you're on macOS Sierra (10.12) and you go on a moodle 3.1, for instance, your php version would be recent enough. but old, and maybenot addressing the pb you have right now. There already are documentation here for Mac Os X Server. It should be the same for 10.10 Server & 10.9 Server, but I'm not able to test. If you don't have the Server app, it will NOT work this way. These informations will work on macOS 10.11 (Capitan) and 10.12 Sierra Server.

Plus, I'm used to do my teachings/tutorials (etc.) with a weird sense of humour: I don't really know how to do without.Īs I spent a lot of time (who said 'wasted' ?) trying to install/configure/upgrade Moodle on Mac Os X Server (and now, macOS Server), I thought I might write somewhere the problems I met and how I worked around some. This is my first page in the Wiki, so please be nice with me.
