Guys I am trying to install/setup zend framework on my mac book pro. I am running MAMP Pro 2.0.3 on mac os x lion 10.7.2

I got zend framework installation instruction form http://akrabat.com/. The author says that I should add alias to zf.sh script in my ~/.bash_profile. But there is no such file in my home directory to I create a new file by “touch .bash_profile”, but this is also not working.

Also I downloaded zend studio trial and tried to create a project from there but when I run it in browser its only showing blank page…

Any idea whats going wrong? Can anybody tell me what can I do to successfully create project from zend studio or zend tool?

Is there any step by step guide available for mac os x lion ?
any help will be much appreciated!!

Update 1 – OMG! how can I skip this… when I am creating project form zend studio its not putting zend library in “library” folder… thats why I am getting blank page… I just copied the zend folder in library and project form zend studio got working…

still working to resolve the first issue (setting zf.sh) 🙁

Answer 1

As .bash_profile was not there I created my own! by –

sudo nano ~./bash_profile

and created a alias in it for zf.sh file –

alias zf=/usr/local/ZendFrameworkCli/bin/zf.sh

and boom!!

I tested this by running this command –

zf show version

and it worked perfectly…

Many thanks to @tawfekov and @halfer
