• Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Where is Plesk Panel's PHP binary?

Hi,

Does Plesk's own server, "sw-cp-server" use a different PHP binary than is used for hosted sites?

If so, where is it?

I've found the .ini, /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/, but I can't figure out where the binary would be?

I'm trying to run some WP-CLI commands, but some functions I have disabled in the default PHP.ini are required by WP-CLI.

Thanks.
 
It is /usr/bin/sw-engine. But note, that it would be better to use user's php for wp-cli because consequences are unpredictable in case of using admin's php. Also you can use separate php.ini for wp-cli Something like

# /usr/bin/php5 -c xxx.ini wp-cli.php
