php command not found after yum install php55-php-cli
So I am using the EPEL repo with yum, When I run the command everything installs fine:
sudo yum install php55-php-cli
However when I run:
php
I get the error:
php command not found
Does anyone know why ?
update
People are throwing around different packages to install which is wrong, when I do yum search php5 | grep 'cli' the results are:
php54-php-cli.x86_64 : Command-line interface for PHP

Answer
Hey all and future me (I will of forgotten this next year),
To fix this issue I did two things.
yum install php55source /opt/remi/php55/enable
to test running php -v now works
update
if you are using puppet you cannot run the command source so I found another solution
When you run the command ls -la you can see that php will run but if you do php56 -v so my second option would be to symlink php to /opt/remi/php56/root/usr/bin/php
[vagrant@localhost ~]$ ls -la /usr/bin/ | grep 'php'
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Jan 28 16:57 php56 -> /opt/remi/php56/root/usr/bin/php
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 Jan 28 16:57 php56-cgi -> /opt/remi/php56/root/usr/bin/php-cgi
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Jan 28 16:57 php56-pear -> /opt/remi/php56/root/usr/bin/pear
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Jan 28 16:57 php56-phar -> /opt/remi/php56/root/usr/bin/phar.phar
