How to config the PHP path

I think something like this:

return[

  ['php' => '/usr/local/php7.1/bin/php']

]

Thanks.

Please be more specific about what do you want to achieve.

My domain is hosted in a virtual server (linux Debian) with root access, no shared enviroment really.

I have installed Yii 2.0.11 advanced with composer and initiated it to the production enviroment. When the webRoot is called, it shown the following erros:

Warning: require(/home/www/ ... /frontend/web/../../vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/www/ ... /frontend/web/index.php on line 5




Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required '/home/www/ ... /frontend/web/../../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php7.1/lib/php') in /home/www/ .../frontend/web/index.php on line 5

The reason might be:

The server has more PHPs installed and provides different versions in consol(bash) and using scripts.

Alrough I set the PHP to 5.5 or 7.1 in the Controll Panel, the PHP version on the consol is always 5.3.29.

The installation and initiation were not able with PHP 5.3.29, so I had to used:

/usr/local/php7.1/bin/php

to make the processes.

If the path of PHP in Yii2 could be set by config to php7.1 , the problem might be solved.

By the way, the Yii 2.0.7 doesn’t have this problem on the same server.

Screen shoot:

1. php version

...:~$ php -v

PHP 5.3.29 (cli) (built: Dec 29 2016 12:22:19)

Copyright (c) 1997-2014 The PHP Group

Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2014 Zend Technologies

In yii2, the php version is 7.1, I have used phpinfo() to confirm it within the SiteController.

2. root folders

bin  boot  clamav  ctrl  dev  etc  home  lib  lib32  lib64  media  mnt  opt  proc  sbin  selinux  services  srv  start  sys  tmp  usr  var

3. local/ folders

bin       ei                   games    imagemagick         man           openssl   php5.3-old  php5.6    php7-old      python-3.5  stunnel  Zend5

bzr       etc                  git      include             memcached     php4      php5.4      php5.7    pngquant      ruby-2.2    tmp

c-client  ffmpeg-2.7.2         hg       instantclient_12_1  nodejs        php4-old  php5.4-old  php5-old  python-2.7    sbin        varnish

clamav    ffmpeg-2.7.2.tar.gz  hosting  lib                 nodejs-0.6.8  php5      php5.5      php7      python-2.7.2  share       wget

curl      frontpage            icu      libpq               nodejs4       php5.3    php5.5-old  php7.1    python-3.2.2  src         Zend4

4. php7.1 folders:

bin  etc  include  lib  php  var

The same error occured if using php7 or php5.5.

Nobody in the hosting company could solve the problem with the php versions.

Thanks in advance.

with php5.3.29:

  ...  :~/www/ ... /frontend/web$ php index.php

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in /home/www/ … /frontend/web/index.php on line 17

Yii 2 requires at least PHP 5.4 so it’s expected to fail with 5.3. If you’re not using PHP 5.3 then I’d suggest replacing binary with a symlink to PHP 7.1.

Is there no chance to config php version to be used within Yii2?

I made:

alias php='/usr/local/php7.1/bin/php'

but no effect.

I would say that is a bug:

see:

Sorry, I have no idea why it fails. There were no related changes since 2.0.7 as far as I know. If you’ll find out a reason, please report it to issue tracker. Thanks.

try composer update
