SSH error: magento must be run as a CLI application

[Daniel_BPT]

Hello,

Any magento command I try returns the following error:

Content-type: text/html

bin/magento must be run as a CLI applicationbash-3.2$

Here's my PHP info:

PHP 5.4.42 (cgi-fcgi) (built: Jun 16 2015 14:54:07)

I'm new to web development so I'm probably missing something but I just can't figure out how to fix this. How do I change my PHP from cgi to cli? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Hi @Daniel_BPT,

Magento2 is not compatible with PHP version 5.4.x. You should use PHP version 7.0.x to install Magento2 website.
