Update PHP version to PHP 7.* on Palapa Web Server (PAW) - php

Would it be possible to update the version of PHP to PHP 7.* on Palapa Web Server (PAW), and if so can someone point me in the right direction? Currently the PHP version is 5.5.11 and I require a version >= 5.6.4 as I would like to do development using Laravel 5.4, and in the future Laravel 5.5.
Thanks,
Tim

Is Laravel 5.4 compatible with PHP 7.3

The company hosting my website (which was developed with Laravel 5.4 and PHP 5.6) mandate a change to PHP 7.3, this has been done but I got an error; and I have to switch back to PHP 5.6 to maintain the site up and running.
I want to know if scripts developed in Laravel 5.4 are compatible with PHP 7.3
You can check PHP 7.3 compatibility of Laravel here: https://github.com/laravel/framework/issues/27052
Your dependencies must be causing the problem, you need to downgrade them running the composer update command on a terminal that has PHP version 5.6 in it, you can check the version with: php -v. Once they are updated, you may upload your project again to the server that's running PHP 7.3

update my xampp installation from 5.3 to 5.5 or 5.6 - on power pc mac 10.5

I have php 5.6.38 downloaded but I can't get my xampp installed to see the new version of php, is there a way to get a php 5638.so file that xampp will see? Or do i need to go about this completely differently? I'm trying to run a codeigniter project that relies on having php 5.4, the installed xampp version is 5.31.
Thanks for any help.

Laravel local insists PHP 7.1.5 even though WAMP running PHP 5.6.32

I have a WAMP installation and selected PHP 5.6.32 as the version to run.
When I run php artisan serve, the phpinfo() call returns PHP 7.1.5 Development Server
My host has PHP version 5.6.32 installed and I'd like to get Laravel working locally with something other than PHP 7.
What can I do here as the deployment to my host isn't working.
I'm running Laravel version 5.5.32
Yes you need to go down in Laravel Version 5.4 or lower,
https://laravel.com/docs/5.4
** Or you need to upgrade your WAMP PHP to 7 which is required for Laravel 5.5
If you read the docs it will tell you what is required in order to run version of Laravel. It is indicated in to very top of the page under requirements
Good luck with the development

Older version of php with Xampp

I installed Xampp currently on version 1.8.2 and comes with php version 5.4.16.
My server off of bluehost is currently on php version 5.2.17.
Is there a way to install the older version of php (5.2.17) on my Xampp so my local is compatible with my server?
Or...
Would I have to download an older version of Xampp (one that supports php 5.2.17 version)?
and if that is the case...
How would I know which Xampp version comes with php 5.2.17
Any help will be much appreciated!
Thank you,
Baraa
Well it turns out there is not an Xampp version that supports the exact php 5.2.17 version.
So I installed Xampp version 1.7.1 which supports php version 5.2.8.
And that made my local compatible with the php off of my server!
