Issues fetching mail in 1.8 IMAP

[wingnut2dot0]

I am unable to fetch mail using POP/IMAP polling. Poll on auto-cron is working just fine, so the email configuration is correct, but I am receiving the T_FUNCTION...bootstrap.php line 233 error when I look at the error_log in the api folder. I understand that this is usually a result of not running the appropriate version of php, but in this case I am running 5.4.20 which should be OK. I have tried specifically calling a 54 php.ini file via php -c in cron which does not help. The error I receive from Cron Daemon is Status: 500 Internal Server Error.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

osTicket Version:v1.8.0
Mail Sending: phpMail
Mail Fetching/Receiving: IMAP
PHP version: 5.4.20
Operating System: linux

Thank you.

To anyone with the same issue - I was able to fix this by prefixing the cron statement with the following:/usr/php/54/usr/bin/php

By default cron CLI was running PHP 5.2.17
