I’m the Unix guy trying to see whether I can upgrade PHP on our website. I don’t use WordPress. The WordPress guy is out for a few weeks. I downloaded the PHP Compatibility Checker, a zip file, unzipped it in the directory that has all the other WP plugins. When I try to run wp phpcompat 7.2 --scan=active I find out there is no executable named wp. When I go to the directory and run ./wpengine-phpcompat.php I get

./wpengine-phpcompat.php: line 1: ?php: No such file or directory
./wpengine-phpcompat.php: line 2: /aquota.group: Permission denied
./wpengine-phpcompat.php: line 3: error_log: command not found
./wpengine-phpcompat.php: line 4: error_log: command not found

./wpengine-phpcompat.php: line 10: error_log: command not found

./wpengine-phpcompat.php: line 14: error_log: command not found
./wpengine-phpcompat.php: line 15: error_log: command not found
./wpengine-phpcompat.php: line 16: php52/: is a directory
./wpengine-phpcompat.php: line 18: //: is a directory
./wpengine-phpcompat.php: line 19: syntax error near unexpected token `’ABSPATH”
./wpengine-phpcompat.php: line 19: `if ( ! defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) ) {‘

php wpengine-phpcompat.php returns nothing, seems to have done nothing; it completes immediately.

Can I do what I want to do? I appreciate that this is a dumb question.

1. If you want to be able to use the wp command, you’ll need to make sure that WP-CLI is installed. See: https://wp-cli.org/
2. If you want to run from the command-line anyway, you’d probably be better off using the underlying project – PHPCompatibility for PHP_CodeSniffer – instead of the WP plugin. See: https://github.com/PHPCompatibility/PHPCompatibility/

Thanks! I figured out I needed wp-cli. Every command I try returns:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 41943040 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 12288 bytes) in …/wp-content/plugins/username-changer/includes/libraries/s214-settings/source/class.s214-settings.php on line 844

wp --info works. I have about 2G free RAM .

@arthurpeabody Try using the PHPCompatibility project proper instead and use it with --extensions=php. Let me know how you fare.

Thanks! That would seem to work

phpcs -p . --standard=PHPCompatibility --runtime-set testVersion 7.2 --extensions=php

returns

…….W………………..

Clear as mud!

@arthurpeabody Pro-tip: use --runtime-set testVersion 7.2- to test for compatibility with PHP 7.2 and higher.
