PHP 7 installed, but webserver tells me I am running php 5.5

  • I am having a problem making WP work with the right php version. I am running WP on a Mac mini server I recently updated. Checking the php in terminal I see the following:
    server:~ MiniServer$ php -v
    PHP 7.0.4 (cli) (built: Mar 14 2016 08:14:23) ( NTS )
    Looking good – I have upgraded to php7 so this was to be expected. But running the phpinfo file – not so good….:

    According to this, I am still running php5.5

    Anyone who has any tips?

  • More a server config problem than a WordPress one. I suspect the web server itself is still loading the PHP 5.5 module and config files.

    Did you restart the web server?

    Yes – I did restart, both physically and using sudo apachectl restart. When I do sudo apachectl -k restart, I get:
    [Sat Apr 23 11:35:38.679196 2016] [so:warn] [pid 5652] AH01574: module php7_module is already loaded, skipping

    But you are right – perhaps I am asking on the wrong forum. If this is not place to get helpe, perhaps someone can point me in the right direction?
