$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] not set and phpinfo() throws error

[MiguelDebruyne]

I did the installation, installed XAMPP for the first time, I've done no edits to config files except in VSC I added /usr/local/bin/php to the PHP executable path. No .htaccess in my project. It works, however, $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] is not set, when I looked further trying to debug I saw phpinfo() just throws an error PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function php_info(). Any idea why that is?

Edit: I've just come back from a long hiatus in programming, someone asked me to do php_info() while it should have been phpinfo(), which does work. I typed it here correctly, funnily enough.

Working on MacOs Big Sur.

My apologies, I should have seen that. I thought this was so basic that it's impossible for anyone to develop a website in php without that and my knowledge is to small to have seen that this is a php server issue. Feel free to delete.
