I have Mautic v4.1.0 with PHP 7.4 and console commands are doing nothing. Also, I call -hep options and nothing happens.
Does anyone know how to deal with this?

This is a linux issue, not a Mautic issue. Did it work before? What is the exact command you try to execute?

I’m trying something like this and I’m not getting any response in the console.
```auto
php bin/console --help
php bin/console mautic:segments:update
```

Make sure this is the right php command.
Maybe you need php7.4 bin/console …
Are you in the mautic folder when you execute the command?

If I do the following command
```sh
php -v
```
Then I get
```auto
PHP 7.4.27 (cli) (built: Dec 30 2021 15:05:52) ( NTS )

If I do that I get a `command not found` response.

Yes, I’m. When I don’t have the right path to console file I get something like this for example
```auto
Could not open input file: /home/llama/public_html/mautic/bin/consoe
```

In the `bin/error_log` file I’m seeing this now
```auto
[10-Jan-2022 20:01:02 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 20480 bytes) in /home/llama/public_html/mautic/app/bundles/UserBundle/Model/UserModel.php on line 390
```
I don’t know if this is related. But I have **256M memory\_limit**

Well, this is more like a linux thing then Mautic, I’m not a Linux Genie.
However, you need to be sure, that you are editing the right php.ini file. You can see the ini in use in your Settings / System info in Mautic.
Also don’t forget to restart Apache / Nginx after you change the settings.

It is hard to give a good advice on this one. Which tutorial did you follow?
In mine I’m using 512M for memory usage.
