NYCPHP Meetup

Apache and PHP come pre-installed on OS X, you just have to take a few 
steps to get things going.  I believe MySQL has to be installed, I 
haven't gotten around to that yet.

For Apache, just go into System Preferences and enable "Personal Web 
Sharing" (under Sharing.)  That will start the Apache server.
Here's a URL with more info:

For PHP, you just have to edit the Apache httpd.conf file to load the 
module.  I found this page to be a helpful reference point.

The sanbeiji page also has a link regarding MySQL installation.  I 
haven't done that part yet.  If you do the install, I'd be interested 
to hear how it goes.
