Yes - but I don't think you can do an upgrade from 5 to 7. 5 is pretty darned old.

You can however run 5 and 7 side by side (which is what we do - although I'm not sure we actually use 5 any more come to think of it).

some more info. The web hosting site is running PHP 7.0.27. IBM i
reports PHP version 5.6.15

if that turns out to be the cause of the error, what options do I have?
Can the PHP in IBM i be upgraded to version 7?

I need to read a file from dropbox using PHP. I am running curl_exec. My
PHP curl code works when running on a PHP hosting site ( a2 hosting ). But
the remote web service ( dropbox ) responds with "error 4xx" when I run the
code from PHP on the IBM i.

How to track down the cause?

I am using the Dropbox web service APIs to retrieve the list of items in a
folder. Then the code reads the contents of a file in the dropbox folder.

Here is the PHP code. It is using curl to access the
content.dropbox.com/2/files/download web service. This identical code
runs ok on the a2 hosting PHP hosting site. But when I run it on two
different IBM i PHP servers I get back a "not found" message from dropbox.

another thing. I am able to use the dropbox list_folder web service to get
the list of items in a dropbox folder. That works from IBM i PHP using
curl. Only the files/download api fails. And it only fails on IBM i. )
