### Q&A
|
||||
|
||||
#### Q: This app is doing network requests?
|
||||
|
||||
It's Homebrew. I can't prevent `brew` from doing things via the network when I invoke it.
|
||||
|
||||
PHP Monitor itself doesn't do any network requests. Feel free to check the source code or intercept the traffic, if you don't believe me.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Q: How can I set this up on a fresh Mac?
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to set up your computer for the very first time, here's how I do it:
|
||||
|
||||
Install [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) first.
|
||||
|
||||
Install PHP, composer, add to path:
|
||||
|
||||
brew install php
|
||||
brew install composer
|
||||
nano .zshrc
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure the following line is not in the comments:
|
||||
|
||||
export PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH
|
||||
|
||||
and add the following to your .zshrc:
|
||||
|
||||
export PATH=$HOME/bin:~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure PHP is linked correctly:
|
||||
|
||||
which php
|
||||
|
||||
should return: `/usr/local/bin/php`
|
||||
|
||||
composer global require laravel/valet
|
||||
valet install
|
||||
|
||||
This should install `dnsmasq` and set up Valet. Great, almost there!
|
||||
|
||||
valet trust
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, run PHP Monitor. Since the app is notarized and signed with a developer ID, it should work.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Q: I want PHP Monitor to start up when I boot my Mac!
|
||||
|
||||
You can do this by dragging *PHP Monitor.app* into the **Login Items** section in **System Preferences > Users & Groups** for your account.
|
||||
|
||||
Super convenient!
|
||||
|
||||
#### Q: PHP Monitor says that the latest version of PHP is not installed, but it is!
|
||||
|
||||
Try installing again using `brew install php@7.4`.
|
||||
|
||||
This should resolve the issue.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Q: PHP Monitor reports another version compared to phpinfo on my local website, what is going on?
|
||||
|
||||
_Beginning with version 2.0 you'll get alerts about this at startup._
|
||||
|
||||
If you're still seeing another version of PHP in your scripts running on your local webserver (nginx) — e.g. when running `phpinfo()` — I recommend you shut down all PHP services that are currently active. You can find out what services are active by running:
|
||||
|
||||
sudo brew services list | grep php
|
||||
|
||||
This will present to you a list of services, like so (depending on the installed versions of PHP):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
php started root /Library/LaunchDaemons/homebrew.mxcl.php.plist
|
||||
php@5.6 stopped
|
||||
php@7.0 stopped
|
||||
php@7.1 stopped
|
||||
php@7.2 stopped
|
||||
php@7.3 stopped
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You'll want to make sure that **only one service is running** and that it is running **as `root`**. You can terminate a service by running:
|
||||
|
||||
sudo brew services stop {service_name}
|
||||
|
||||
So in order to disable PHP 7.3, you'd need to run:
|
||||
|
||||
sudo brew services stop php@7.3
|
||||
|
||||
If you notice that PHP FPM is running as your own user account, you can turn off the service by running:
|
||||
|
||||
brew services stop php@7.3
|
||||
|
||||
The easiest way to make sure that PHP Monitor works again is to run the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
sudo brew services stop php
|
||||
sudo brew services stop php@7.3
|
||||
sudo brew services stop php@7.2
|
||||
sudo brew services stop php@7.1
|
||||
sudo brew services stop php@7.0
|
||||
sudo brew services stop php@5.6
|
||||
sudo brew services stop nginx
|
||||
|
||||
Then, in PHP Monitor, select "Restart php-fpm service", which should start the service.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can run `sudo brew services start php@7.4` where `7.4` is your preferred version of PHP (for the latest version of PHP, you may omit `@7.4` like in the example above).
