version php7.3

It seems there is some known issues here:

Detected macOS Mojave 10.14. There are serious issues with it, due to the original apache not loading

foreign libraries anymore. PHP within apache will most certainly not work anymore if you proceed!

The cli version still will. See this issue at https://github.com/liip/php-osx/issues/249 for details and discussion

I am on Mojave. I installed PHP 7.3 but then when I run phpinfo() It shows I am still on 7.1. After installing 7.3 how do I tell the computer to actually use php version 7.3

From terminal what does it show:

php -v

Did you run the command line:

curl -s https://php-osx.liip.ch/install.sh | bash -s force 7.3

I just used Homebrew to update to PHP 7.3.4. Of course, I had the same issue of the CLI showing a different PHP version than phpinfo(). I solved the problem, though. Here's what I did. I simply added the path of the new php executable to my .bash_profile.

Homebrew installs php in /usr/local/Cellar/. This is what I added to the .bash_profile. After restarting terminal, CLI worked correctly.

export PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/php/7.3.4_1/bin:$PATH
