How to verify PHP and MySQL version on NAS

Does anyone know if the newer ReadyNAS ship with PHP and MySQL installed?  And if so, how can you verify the version?  I saw a post online about PHP as follows:

 

Distro PHP Version
Ubuntu 12.04 5.3.10
Ubuntu 14.04 5.5.9
Ubuntu 16.04 7.0
CentOS 6 5.3.3
CentOS 7 5.4.16
Debian 7 5.4.45
Debian 8 5.6.20

 

It's my understanding that OS 6.6 was an upgrade to Debian 8 but I'm uncertain if the latest PHP and MySQL were part of that upgrade or not. 

 

Thanks!

 

  • -which php and which mysql returned nothing.

    -find -iname "php" and find -iname "myqsl" found nothing

    -dpkg --list did not include anything related to mysql or php

  • How did you verify it? Is there a guide or tutorial on how to install them? I presume it won't break anything such as the admin interface?

    Thanks!

        Got it so is there any how-to guides on installing the latest versions?  It seems everything in the App store is using much older version or in limbo since the upgrade to OS 6.6.
