Wordpress/php issue
-
I recently upgraded from Debian 7 to 9 and then installed PHP 7. I thought it would update from 5.x to 7 but it doesn't. The issue I have is that Wordpress is looking at the 5.6 ini file and I want it to look at the 7 file. What is the easiest way to go about fixing this? I'd gladly get rid of 5.6 if I knew it wouldn't booger anything up.

Are you sure that WordPress is calling PHP7 rather than 5.6?

It is calling 5.6 because the limit for file uploads is set to 8MB in 5.6 and 20MB in 7 and when I go to media in wordpress it shows that the limit is 8MB

The other odd part is I changed the upload limit to 15 in 5.6 and it still shows 8MB

systemctl restart apacheThere should a be a 'No $hit' button for replies like that :). I did that also and actually rebooted the server. Still nothing.

Yes

I use it for my Ubiquiti stuff only. and that is barely touched.

Instead of uninstalling php5, just disable it.
# Disable php5 enable php7 a2dismod php5 a2enmod php7 systemctl restart apache2.service -
Weird but working now. I went back in the ini file for 5.6 and changed it to another #, saved it, restarted service, went into wordpress and it didn't register. Went back to ini in 5.6, changed it again, saved, and restarted services and this time it did register. WHATEVER!
