How to check PHP version on server?

    Hi,

    I'm installing Openx onto my forum, but I've run into a problem at the first step. I've uploaded all the files to the server and when I go to run the install I get "PHP version 5.1.4, or greater, was not detected.", I opened a ticket with my hosting company yesterday, but as yet, I've not had any reply.

    I was just wondering is there a way I can check this myself from my CP?

    When I login to phpMyAdmin I see this;

    Would the "Server version: 5.0.45-log" be the PHP version?

    TIA

    -Patrick

    Could be. But make a php file with text inside:
    <?php
    phpinfo();
    ?>
    
    And upload and open in your browser, should tell you the version among other details. Don't forget to delete it after you're done.

    Thanks Gordon. Says "PHP Version 4.4.7" in big bold letters at the top of that page :D

    Hope my hosts will update it for me, or would this be something I could do myself?

    Thanks again,

    -Patrick
