Doesn't seem to be working when switching from the latest version of PHP

[moorebrett0]

Hey there!

When I try and switch from php 7.4.5, nothing seems to happen.

brett~/Sites$ switch-php 7.1
Password:
Valet stopped ✔
PHP switched ✔
Valet started ✔

You are now using PHP 7.4.5

I'd expect PHP 7.1 to be in use after running this.

@eleftrik aha I know exactly what's happening to you - I'll push a fix here in a bit.

@moorebrett0 not sure why yours is doing that... 🤔 Can you try running switch-php in verbose mode and sharing that here? Maybe also give me the output of brew services list while you're at it...

Doesn't seem so, the last issue closed was in 2019

same issue here

[encodiaweb]

@jalendport Has this project been discontinued?

[moorebrett0]

@encodia I believe it has.

[encodiaweb]

@encodia I believe it has.

Of course it has... Ok, it's open source, nothing is due to anyone, but in such a case I think it's better to mark a project as discontinued / not maintained.
