Resolved Problem with Nextcloud upgrade and PHP version

Plesk version and microupdate number

Hello,

I'm trying to upgrade Nextcloud using the "sudo -u www-data php occ upgrade" command, and I get this error message when I launch it :

This version of Nextcloud requires at least PHP 8.0<br/>You are currently running 7.4.33. Please update your PHP version.root@thamms:/var/www/vhosts/madonie.org/subdomains/nu

In Plesk the PHP version configured for this domain is PHP 8.1.23 FPM application served by Apache. Why does Nextcloud updater think that I'm running PHP 7.44.33 ?

Thank you

Problem solved by using :

sudo -u www-data /opt/plesk/php/8.1/bin/ph occ upgrade

instead of :

sudo -u www-data php occ upgrade

after reading :

FYI: running any command with sudo -u www-data will execute that command as the www-data system user. By default thats NOT a system user thats used by Plesk. Using it may cause issues with your Nextcloud installation or even basic Plesk features (such as backups). Instead use run the command with the system user of the domain on which Nextcloud is installed. So for example sudo -u sysuser_b9r5dy /opt/plesk/php/8.1/bin/ph occ upgrade. You'll find the system user for a domain at the bottom of the domain card.

Thank you for the precision. In fact, it's what I've done, since using www-data wasn't working. I didn't know it could cause troubles. My explanation was not accurate.
