 * I have wp-cli installed on a WHM/cpanel server running multi-php versions with
   EasyApache4. I am able to use wp-cli when Im either in the directory where wp-
   config resides or I use the –path command but Im now trying to use a bash script
   that will go through all the websites on the server and run wp-cli commands and
   each time it returns the html output which you should only get when phar is disabled:
 *  content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
 * I have followed the docs regarding enabling phar and added the following to the
   php.ini files for all versions of php on the server (5.5, 5.6 and 7)
 *  suhosin.executor.include.whitelist = phar
 * I also have the following in .bash_profile to ensure that the correct php binary
   is being used:
 *  alias wp=’/usr/local/bin/php /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/share/wp-cli/wp-cli.
   phar’
 * Im guessing that phar is not enabled when I use wp-cli with a script?
 * Here are some scripts Ive been trying to use
