I have installed zend server on my mac and i think that there are two installations of php on my mac (i hate mac bythe way, i'd love to get back to windows 7), i think that a script i'm running from the command line (phpcs) is using the php command that is inside /usr/bin/ while i'd like to use the one that's inside /usr/local/zend/bin/ always. How should i do that?

Add /usr/local/zend/bin to your PATH, before /usr/bin.
Or just uninstall the PHP in /usr/bin.

Heh sorry, no idea, I'm not a Mac guy. At the least, you could rename it to /usr/bin/php.old or something. – Alex Howansky Mar 28 '12 at 16:35

Me neither, in the end i renamed the old php and made a simbolic link in /usr/bin/php to zend server php – Nicola Peluchetti Mar 28 '12 at 16:41

1There is no need to uninstall the default PHP...just ensure that you "prepend" /usr/local/zend/bin to your $PATH environment variable. – Wil Moore III Mar 28 '12 at 20:26

On Mac or Linux you can add the following to your bash shell (via ~/.bash_profile or similar):
export PATH=/usr/local/zend/bin:$PATH
source /etc/zce.rc
Loading in /etc/zce.rc sets up the system library path correctly and removes warnings about the crypto lib.
