Introduction

This guide will walk through the steps (and common issues/workarounds) to installing PHP, Apache, MySQL, Redis, Mongo DB, and Couch DB, as well as all necessary dependencies and their configuration with PHP and the OS X/macOS system.

It is important to remember Mac OS X/macOS runs atop UNIX, so all of these technologies install easily on your OS. Furthermore, Apache and PHP are included by default. In the end, you only install MySQL and the other databases and then simply "turn everything on."

Important notes on updating OS X/macOS: with every update of OS X (Yosemite, El Capitan, etc) and now macOS Sierra, your Apache configuration file will be overwritten to httpd.conf.pre-update and a stock file will be added. Your virtual hosts file, /extras/httpd-vhosts.conf will also be overwritten and not backed up automatically.
