Forcing Apache2 to use php56 from Homebrew

Question

So I started with

brew reinstall php56 --with-apache

This worked fine I then amended httpd.conf to include

LoadM         


        

Answer 1

I was restarting apache, but it was not working it turns out.

Restarting my whole machine did work and apache then used the correct version of PHP.

Apparently killall httpd has the same effect too. Although I have not tried that.
