PHP: Unable to load dynamic library intl.so (OSX)

Question

I am trying to run a CakePHP app. I've been working for a while in this app and recently I had to install a new dependency (using composer). Once I installed it this error came up and I can't run the app anymore:

PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20121212/intl.so' - dlopen(/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20121212/intl.so, 9): Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/icu4c/lib/libicui18n.56.dylib Referenced from: /usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20121212/intl.so Reason: image not found in Unknown on line 0

When I open that folder I can see a different version of that library:

libicui18n.57.dylib

But the system is looking for

libicui18n.56.dylib

How can I install the 56 version of that library or upgrade the intl so it uses version 57?

Is that what I need to do?

Thanks!!

I have the same question when i upgrade node to v8.x. After i run brew upgrade node,the icu4c was updated. I solve the problem by under command: brew unlink php56-intl brew remove php56-intl brew install php56-intl

so, i feel you should reinstall intl extension.
