Resolution

apstools requires java, php and APS PHP Runtime. JRE/JDK and PHP are usually already installed on most OS X distributives.

Verify that both Java and PHP are available, execute the following commands in Terminal:

java -version

php -v
Download APS PHP Runtime

Note: make sure APS PHP Runtime is accessible for PHP using include_path in php.ini:
- rename /etc/php.ini.default to /etc/php.ini
- uncomment include_path for Unix in php.ini
- specify the path to the folder where you unpacked APS PHP Runtime
