how to switch to php5 in ps

I must have missed something. I thought DH had already started using php5 in all the servers. But php -v shows PHP 4.4.9 in private server.

If I am not wrong, I remember somebody mentioned that DH private server is running php4. But it seems that php5 is already installed in private server. I am wondering whether there is a quick way to switch to php5 in private server.

That's just what's first found on the command line due to path settings. Try creating a .php file on your site with the following:

<?php 
echo phpinfo(); 
echo "\n";
?>

And then load that page in your browser. It'll show what version of PHP your site is running, and what its current PHP settings are.

php -v will echo the CLI version.

Defaults are CLI=PHP4 - CGI=PHP5

Thank you for replies.

phpinfoI() shows PHP Version 5.2.6.

But one of my script complains that Call to undefined function: stream_get_line(). It is a php5 function.

I can manually set path to php5 bin directory to execute the script like /usr/local/php5/bin/php myscript.php but I don't think that is the right way of doing that.

What else did I miss?

Manually setting the path should work fine
