Hi,

you have to build intl-extension from php source code on your own. If you have some experiences using the terminal it won't be hard to do.

First make sure you installed Xcode and started it at least once to finish installation and accept license agreement.
Download latest version of autoconf from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/autoconf-latest.tar.gz. Its a prerequisite to build php modules which is not shipped with macOS.
Extract the file and open a terminal in macOS and open the extracted folder using cd command.
Afterwards use commands:
./configure
make
sudo make install (your password is required, make sure you are an admin user in macOS)

Download the version of php you use in xampp from php.net.
Extract it and open the extracted folder in a terminal using cd.
Change to subfolder ext/intl.
Run these commands to build the extension:
/Applications/XAMPP/bin/phpize
./configure --enable-intl --with-php-config=/Applications/XAMPP/bin/php-config --with-icu-dir=/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/
make
sudo make install (password required)
Delete all files you downloaded and also the extracted folders.
Add to php.ini file in xampp/etc folder line
extension="intl.so"

Since intl-extension has to be compiled anew each time you installed a new version of xampp I wrote a shell script to do this for me.

Regards,
Chris

Running Mac OS Catalina v. 10.15.7
XAMPP 7.4.11 (PHP 7.4.11)

I have used your previous suggestion successfully in the past to get PHP-Intl to function correctly in XAMPP. I just updated to XAMPP 7.4.11, however, and I cannot get PHP-Intl to load. Any suggestions?

Here's the error message from Terminal:

Any help much appreciated!
Thanks!

PHP-Int has separated out ICU utilities, making the extension difficult to add to XAMPP’s installed version of PHP.

I was able to do it this time by using Macports, in Mac's CLI:

sudo port install php74-intl

then, go to

/opt/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/intl.so [php folder may have a number, like php74]

copy the intl.so file into

/Applications/xampp/xamppfiles/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20190902/ [date will vary]

Change the PHP.ini file to include the intl.so file.

And it worked ... this time, anyway!
