Do you have shell access? If so try 'which php'.

Else if you run phpinfo() it will show you a lot of into, not sure it it shows the path directly but I do know it shows the ini file locations from which you can usually dervive the path as being ../bin/php file that location. Also look at the --prefix option if any in the configure command it outputs. If there is one that will give you the path to append to bin/php
else it is /usr/local/bin/php


Also there does not have to be a path to php, it can be build in such a way that it is built into the webserver.

Thanks "which php" did it.
I am trying to configure my Hivemail to pickup mail from my mailserver and I did have the path to php correct.
I have a cron.php setup to do the pickup but get the following report emailed to the account:-

Subject: Cron <email address> ./home/mysite/pop.cron.php
/bin/sh: line 1: ./home/mysite/pop.cron.php: No such file or directory

Anything obvious that sticks out?
I've put the pop.cron.php almost everywhere and still get the same - I am working on a VPS with full WHM/CPanel.

yeah, ./ makes it relative to where cron runs, try removing the '.'
