It seems like phpinfo and your question didn't get submitted. – Zev
did you restart apache after switching your PHP version? – Ramy Nasr
@RamyNasr I use nginx, and yes, i restarted it – Beaast_exe
Your command line and HTTP server are using different versions of PHP, ie you have multiple versions installed – Phil
@Phill I'm gonna reinstall the VPS – Beaast_exe

If you run php -v this print the version of php-cli.

If run phpinfo(); into a php file, you print the version of php-fpm.

php-fpm is used by your web server(nginx, apache) to process the .php, while php-cli is used for console commands.
