Hi @xdaniel2063,

You likely have two versions of PHP installed on your system, where php7.2 is the default active for the command line.
You can often choose to run things with a specific version of php. For example:

php7.4 artisan cache:clear

Hello @ssddanbrown,

thank you.

/opt/plesk/php/7.4/bin/php artisan cache:clear

worked. Should I run all commands of the updates this way?

Ideally, since php7.2 is not supported. Alternatively, if not in use anymore, you could look to remove php7.2 to prevent confusion.
Will therefore close this off.
