dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libpng16.16.dylib with anything php related

Question

Using any php application results in:

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libpng15.15.dylib
Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/php
Reason: image not found
         


        

Answer 1

I got this problem after updating MAMP, and the custom $PATH I had set was wrong because of the new php version, so the wrong version of php was loaded first, and it was that version of php that triggered the error.

Updating the path in my .bash_profile fixed my issue.
