The problem is that you have two php executable: one located in /usr/bin and another in /opt/lampp/bin.
When you type php
in your terminal, bash
search it in $PATH
directory list, and it found php
in /usr/bin, so /usr/bin/php is executed.
If you want to exec /opt/lampp/bin/php
, open you .bashrc
and at the end add this line:
PATH=/opt/lampp/bin:$PATH
Once saved .bashrc, exec:
source .bashrc
or close/open your terminal and try re-do your php command.
