I’ve included what I get when i run this command at the end of the email.Ĥ. I see you have tried to set it to `/usr/bin/php` which will not work as MAMP doesn’t touch this file at all. You basically need to get this to be your MAMP version. You could try and run `wp cli info` which will tell you which PHP version wp cli is trying to use. Is MAMP running? You get the same error if you try to run the `wp` command when MAMP isn’t running (because the mysql server isn’t running).ģ.

For this reason (and many more), it’s worth investing the time to setup your development environments using VVV (a Vagrant configuration focused on WordPress development).
