Can't find the command line php

development

forum:ichsie2036 14 years, 10 months ago

I tried /usr/bin/php and /usr/bin/php5 but neither is right. Tried 'whereis php' which returns nothing and 'whereis php5' which returns:

php5: /etc/php5 /usr/lib/php5 /usr/include/php5 /usr/share/php5

These are all directories. I still have no idea where the command line php is located. :(

Have you definitely installed the package?

sudo apt-get install php5-cli

Test it out by typing "php -h", the help commands should pop up! :)

Thanks a lot! Seems I never installed the CLI. :)

No problem :D
