php versions are shown differently in WHM and server - php

In server, it shows 7.0 php like below from either cPanel
or cat /etc/apache2/conf.d/php.version in server
However in php --version, it shows php5.6.
How can I upgrade my php to 7.0? Thanks.

If you change PHP version from cpanel account it will be applied and your website will use the new version.
php -v command shows the default version of PHP for your system but if you want to check PHP version for your cpanel account only you have to modify your ~/.bashrc file:
alias php="/opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/usr/bin/php"
and then:
source ~/.bashrc
Now you'll find the output some thing like:
php -v

PhpStorm: Run PHP server doesn't work: could not find driver

I am using PhpStorm for a year and now I want to run my PHP server using the PHP Run menu:
I run the server pushing the green arrow button. Then the console show:
/home/john/.cache/JetBrains/PhpStorm2020.1/plugins/idea-php-latest-plugin/php-v7.3.1/php.sh -S localhost:8080 -t /home/john/my-nice-project/backend/web
Then I go to localhost:8080 in my browser and I see this error:
I execute php -v in my terminal and I can see this:
PHP 7.2.34-18+0~20210223.60+debian10~1.gbpb21322 (cli) (built: Feb 23 2021 16:47:51) ( NTS )

So maybe the problem is the version of the PHP interpreter: I have 7.2.34 and PhpStorm has php-v7.3.1 configure.
Is there any way to configure the version?
But if I execute this command, it works fine:
php yii serve --docroot="backend/web/"
Add this to your php.ini file:
extension=pdo.so

php -v shows PHP 7.2.24

I downloaded & installed xampp-linux-x64-7.4.6-0-installer.run on my VM using terminal. Everything went right except PHP version.
The terminal output
php -v

but php info shows version 7.4.6
is there any way to upgrade php version ??
you should be able to use this comand to set the default php version:
sudo update-alternatives --config php

How use different versions of PHP in command line

I'm facing an issue. I've multiple projects thats using different version of PHP. I world like to have a way to define for example:
sites/project1 -> php 5.6
sites/project2 -> php 7.0
sites/project3 ->
php 7.1
I'm currently using MAMP PRO to manage web-server but my issue is regarding to command line.
I don't want to use docker or vagrant for each project just configure a specific binary php per project folder.
Is there a way to do that?
Best!
You can use phpbrew, it's very simple and convenient when you want to switch between PHP versions as well as for PHP extension management.
For changing the PHP CLI version you just run one command:
$ phpbrew list
* php-7.1.12
php-5.5.15
$ php -v

If you use MAMP your php bin files are located under:
/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php*.*.*/bin/php
I can recommend to create alias/symbolic link for each PHP version
/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.1.12/bin/php => php7.1
/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.6/bin/php => php5.6
etc..

Set default version of Php in CentOS 7

I have two versions of PHP in opt/remi folder php56 and php72
but when I php -v on cmd it shows:

How to set default version to PHP 7.2?
I have two versions of PHP in opt/remi folder php56 and php72
how to set default version to PHP 7.2
SCL are designed for parallel installation so don't alter default version in base system
Once the collection is enabled, the version will be used
$ scl enable php72 bash
$ php -v
PHP 7.2.8 (cli) (built: Jul 17 2018 05:35:43) ( NTS )
If you want 7.2 to be the default version (base system) you should install it, according to Wizard instructions for "Default / single version" (and keep 5.6 as secondary version)
Change php cli version in Centos 7
First, find your php7, run phpinfo() and get path or you can do with other ways. for me, it is:
/usr/local/lsws/lsphp73/
then:
cd ~
. ~/.bash_profile
And:
alias php='/usr/local/lsws/lsphp73/bin/php'
Now:
php -v
PHP 7.3.13 (cli) (built: Dec 20 2019 16:02:35) ( NTS )
Create a file "/etc/profile.d/php.sh". Use pathmunge to add the path to your php bin you want as default on line one and save the file.
Example:
pathmunge /opt/remi/php73/root/bin
Reload your profile afterwards by logging in again.
Now if you do a which php and php -v you should see the following output in my case
[root#host etc]# which php
/opt/remi/php73/root/bin/php
[root#host etc]# php -v

This is the preferred way to accomplish this task using tools that are already supplied on a minimal install. This also allows scripts and commands to hit the correct php binaries when accomplishing other tasks. Commands like, pear, pecl, phar, php-config. You want your experience to be global when setting the default, otherwise you might wind up still getting version 5.6's tools when trying to install an extension or complete another task.
module enable php74
for your understanding:
cat /opt/remi/php74/enable
export PATH=/opt/remi/php74/root/usr/bin:/opt/remi/php74/root/usr/sbin${PATH:+:${PATH}}
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/remi/php74/root/usr/lib64${LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}}
export MANPATH=/opt/remi/php74/root/usr/share/man:${MANPATH}

PHP version Conflict between 5.5 and 7.1 in ubuntu 14.04 LTS

When I want to know my php version by terminal using
#php -v
I am getting
PHP 7.1.4-1+deb.sury.org~trusty+1 (cli) (built: Apr 11 2017 22:45:20) ( NTS )

But when I am trying to run info.php written with php code
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
O/P
PHP Version 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.21
Please let me clear what is happening exactly with my php version.
I installed the full LAMP on my system freshly after un-install APACHE2, PHP & My-Sql.
Also, I recommend check Loaded Configuration File item at phpinfo() output.
Here I got /etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and PHP 7.0.15 with Apache.
Then at the terminal, run php --ini and check the same item Loaded Configuration File: to see if got any difference.
