Yes I wanted to try that already, but on the shared hosting (SiteGround, if that makes any difference) cPanel is set up in a way that prevents me from doing this - when I typed command as you suggest, it was converted relative to my home directory, so I ended up with below, which did not work:
/home/mysite/usr/local/php55/bin/php /home/mysite/artisan parseemail
But I have modified the hasbang of artisan to make sure it is parsed with php 5.5 (As per my initial post) so should have the same effect really?
I would suggest opening a support ticket with them as to how you can go about this.
But the command itself starts OK - do you think the error has something to do with artisan being run under a different version of PHP?
Ok after a bit of digging I found out that if I do php55 artisan, then I get a list of possible artisan commands to execute. But if I try to run ./artisan directly I am getting exception error - even though the hashbang is correctly (confirmed by my host support) set up to run php 5.5.
I knew it was something simple! Replaced this:
#!/usr/local/php55/bin/php
with this:
#!/usr/local/php55/bin/php-cli
and everything is working perfectly!
