Which version of php?

[olyly94]

Hi,
When I run the phpinfo script through the localhost/phpinfo.php it tells me that i am using 7.1.11 but when i type php --version at the cmd line it tells me that i am using 5.6.21. I am trying to install symfony 4 and this 5.6.21 seems to be a problem. Can anyone advise?

Hi,

There must be a different version of PHP be installed on your system.
Please take a look into your system PATH environment variable for PHP bin folders.
XAMPP did not use or set any PATH variables.

Best wishes,
