Resolved how to use php 8.x in command line (terminal)?

Server operating system version

ubuntu 20.04

Plesk version and microupdate number

18.0.57

Hi,

Since I switched all my domains to php 8.2 I have removed all php7.x setups from my Plesk installation.
This was including the item "php provided by OS vendor"
Now I cannot use php in my terminal (e.g. to run nextclod console "occ" command.
Even if I had installed it the command line gave the info that php 7.x is not supported by nextcloud anymore.

Is there a way to use php 8.2 (or 8.3) in the commandline like this:

sudo -u wwwrun php occ db:add-missing-indices

In order to run a specific PHP version, you need to provide the full path to the PHP binary of that version, e.g. /opt/plesk/php/8.2/bin/php.

Thanks - that made the trick.

Or you use update-alternatives to change what /etc/alternatives/php points to.
