PHP Version Display

[migs]

I know this sounds like a really dumb question, and probably is, but the current PHP version doesn't appear anywhere in the DirectAdmin control panel.

How do users know what version is installed? They don't have to execute phpversion(), surely, just to find out?

Am I missing something obvious?

cheers

echo '<?php phpinfo(); ?>' > /var/www/html/phpinfo.php

Then open http://your_hostname.com/phpinfo.php in your browser and you'll see all the information.

Cheers for that, however, is there a reason that the php version isn't shown in the System Info page, along with everything else?

If that is what you want you can easily add it.

So easily that I presume you're not going to tell me how?

I'm a long time cpanel user and the feature was always enabled by default, and DA is brand new to me.

I'd appreciate the help.

Hello,

Thanks for the request. It was fairly simple, so I added it into the DA code.
It will be available for the next release of DA.
After the update, it will show up on the System Info page at the bottom, and in the API: CMD_API_SHOW_SERVICES results as well.

This is the versions entry for it:

And how can we disable it if we do not want that info displayed to the end user? I hope there is a going to be a directadmin.conf setting or something to enable or disable.

scsi how can you prevent the end user from knowing what version of php is on the server? Have you found a way to prevent the user from using the phpinfo command? And why would you want to prevent this? Most host want to advertise what version of php they are running.

I've thrown in "show_php_version=1" internally by default. You can set it to 0 in the directadmin.conf to not have it show up in the server info page. If a user want's to know what php version you're using, they'll usually be able to figure it out regardless, but I'll let the admin decide what he wants.

Old thread,

but if its quite simple (like mentioned) to include a secondary php version also (if any installed by custombuild)
