Welcome to Webune Support -

Today's question is regarding: how to find where php is installed?


ANSWER:

the esiest way to find out is to run a phpinfo() file and look at the path settings, usually you will see something like this:

PHP Variables

VariableValue
_ENV["PATH"]/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin


as you can see, mine is installed in /usr/sbin

you can check by listing the files in /usr/sbin

you will see php in the list: like in my list here: (i used ssh)
