  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question PHP Version and Laravel

Adrz

New Pleskian
I have a problem when I go to install the framework laravel, need PHP version 5.4 or higher. SSH always shows PHP 5.3.3.

In PLESK I configured the hosting with the latest version of PHP, but SHH always show PHP 5.3.3.

I need to use PHP5 + to use laravel.

Hi Adrz,

your used command, to control your PHP version is ONLY for your vendor PHP version and not for the Plesk - PHP - versions. Each PHP - version has its own binaries:

Code:
/opt/plesk/php/5.2/bin/php -v
/opt/plesk/php/5.3/bin/php -v
/opt/plesk/php/5.4/bin/php -v
/opt/plesk/php/5.5/bin/php -v
/opt/plesk/php/5.6/bin/php -v
/opt/plesk/php/7.0/bin/php -v

Code:
/opt/plesk/php/5.2/bin/php -m
/opt/plesk/php/5.3/bin/php -m
/opt/plesk/php/5.4/bin/php -m
/opt/plesk/php/5.5/bin/php -m
/opt/plesk/php/5.6/bin/php -m
/opt/plesk/php/7.0/bin/php -m

Code:
/opt/plesk/php/5.2/bin/pecl
/opt/plesk/php/5.3/bin/pecl
/opt/plesk/php/5.4/bin/pecl
/opt/plesk/php/5.5/bin/pecl
/opt/plesk/php/5.6/bin/pecl
/opt/plesk/php/7.0/bin/pecl


Pls. use for example a file with the content:

Code:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
... and place this file in your docroot of your domain ( example: "/var/www/vhosts/YOUR-DOMAIN.COM/httpdocs/phpinfo.php" or for a subdomain: "/var/www/vhosts/YOUR-DOMAIN/SUB-DOMAIN.YOUR-DOMAIN.COM/phpinfo.php" ). Now open your newly created page and check the used PHP version:

 
That's right, my phpinfo.php displays version 6.5.24.
However when I run the installer on the same root gives me the following message:

guzzlehttp / guzzle 6.2.0 requires PHP> = 5.5.0 -> your PHP version (5.3.3) does not Satisfy That requirement.
 
Composer runs php as a console command. You must tell the console to start PHP 5.6 or higher to be able to install this program. Try this workaround:

1) Login to your server by SSH.
2) # su
3) In your /home/[username] directory edit .bashrc and add this line as the last line:
alias php="/opt/plesk/php/5.6/bin/php"
4) Save the file.
5) # source .bashrc

Run "php -v" to verify that the "php" command will now execute the 5.6 version for your user.

Same works for 7.0 like this:
alias php="/opt/plesk/php/7.0/bin/php"

This will not change the default vendor PHP on the machine, it will only trick the file system into looking for "php" at a different location if your user is logged in to the shell.
