I was fooling arroung PHP to get openssl and currupted the installation
later started to get following error while attempting to start apache
sudo apachectl restart
httpd: Syntax error on line 32 of /usr/local/etc/apache2/2.2/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/opt/php53/libexec/apache2/libphp5.so into server: dlopen(/usr/local/opt/php53/libexec/apache2/libphp5.so, 10): Symbol not found: _ap_unixd_config\n Referenced from: /usr/local/opt/php53/libexec/apache2/libphp5.so\n Expected in: /usr/local/Cellar/httpd22/2.2.29/bin/httpd\n in /usr/local/opt/php53/libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
reinstalling php53 gave me zlib not found error brew reinstall php53 --homebrew-apxs
checking if the location of ZLIB install directory is defined... no
configure: error: Cannot find libz
finally fixed by running the following
brew reinstall php53 --homebrew-apxs
xcode-select --install
