Hi there - I configured MultiPHP Manager to use php 5.6 for some users. However when i ssh into the server with the user's account and pull up php -v I still get the "old" standard server PHP version (5.4). When accessing from outside and pulling up an info.pnp the php version ist correctly shown (5.6). I can't install any software vis ssh that depends on 5.6...
any thoughts and any help is appreciated! Thanks Phil

Hello,

Per our PHP Home document:

To more easily allow you to call the PHP binaries directly, we provide the following symlinks for each version of PHP installed on your system:
  • PHP CLI — /usr/local/bin/ea-php##, where ## represents the two-digit PHP version.
  • PHP CGI — /usr/bin/ea-php## command, where ## represents the two-digit PHP version.
EX:

Code:
/usr/bin/ea-php56 -v
Thank you.

Thank you! Not sure though what to put into the php.ini - can you pls advise?
Hello,

Can you elaborate on what setting you are attempting to change, and how you are attempting to make the modification? Generally, you'd use the MultiPHP INI Editor option in cPanel or WHM to make those changes.

Thank you.

Hello,

Could you let us know the contents of the .htaccess file within the document root of the affected website?

Thank you.
