PHP Selector not working

[sven.amend]

Hello COmmunity,

i am new on CloudLinux and i would like to install multiple php versions on my hosts an change between this versions using the CloudLinux Tool PHP Selector.

i have done the following Commands on CLoudLinux:

yum install cagefs
/usr/sbin/cagefsctl –init
/usr/sbin/cagefsctl --enable-all
yum install lvemanager
yum groupinstall alt-php
yum update cagefs lvemanager

the Command Line Tools of PHP Selector changes the PHP versions, but php -v shows the installed php 5.4.35 everytime. What have i done wrong?

Hello,
do you run php -v as a user or as root? You change PHP version for user so have to login to user first:

su -l username -s /bin/bash

If its really under user please show as user:

whoami

ls -la /usr/local/bin/php

ls -la /etc/cl.selector/php-cli

ls -la /opt/alt/php*/usr/bin/php

[sven.amend]

I have run php -v as root and as specific user but in both situations i became php 5.4.35 as active version but i have selected php 5.5 as default in the lvemanager selector.

I loged in with my specific user "user1"

whoami:

Thread can be closed now the php selector is working correctly, i dont know why it was not working already yesterday

[bogdan.sh]

> ls -la /usr/local/bin/php
> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 28207732 10. Dez 17:57 /usr/local/bin/php*

if php version changed for that user this will be a symlink to proper version, but here is regular file. Maybe you did a typo when swiching versions manually, actually if server is without any panels command to run from root is:

selectorctl --set-user-current=5.5 --user=username

Anyway, good to hear it works now.
