you need to manually add the ondrej PPA to be able to install PHP7.2 on Ubuntu 17
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php7.2
Or by compiling it from source by cloning the git repository, checking out to the version that you want, make & make install
for more informations about compiling PHP from source check out how to build/compile PHP from source.
I had a similar problem. This page helped me resolve it. https://tecadmin.net/install-php-debian-9-stretch/
specifically, running these commands prior to the php install
sudo apt install ca-certificates apt-transport-https
wget -q https://packages.sury.org/php/apt.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://packages.sury.org/php/ stretch main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/php.list
Completely remove ALL versions of PHP
sudo apt-get purge 'php*'
Force update from unsigned repository:
Add this option in your sources.list (located at /etc/apt/sources.list):
deb [trusted=yes] https://deb.sury.org/ stretch main
Upgrade the current packages to the latest version:
sudo apt update sudo apt upgrade
Install the required packages first on your system:
sudo apt install ca-certificates apt-transport-https
Then import packages signing key:
wget -q https://packages.sury.org/php/apt.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
After that configure PPA for the PHP packages on your system:
echo "deb https://packages.sury.org/php/ stretch main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/php.list
Lastly, use one of the below options to install PHP of your requirements:
For installing PHP 7.2
sudo apt install php7.2-cli
For installing PHP 7.1
sudo apt install php7.1-cli
In my case a newer php was installed (7.4), so i just replaced the command with the 7.4 versions
sudo apt install php7.4 php7.4-common php7.4-cli php7.4-fpm
to know the version of php installed, use:
php --version
If you getting error like php7.2
php7.2-curl
doesn't have installable candidate or not locate any package or dependencies is php7.2-common
Or libcurl3
Do this. Remeber Change your package name as per your requirements
You have to tackle in mature way. Install aptitude these ubuntu package manager will finds all dependencies, and will install one by one.
apt-get install aptitude
Now you have to check if aptitude can download it or not if download it follow instructions
sudo aptitude install php7.2-curl
If you have gotten any error like this
E: Unable to locate package php7.2-curl E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'php7.2-curl'
Any type on error i'm not talking about proper these errors
Try to add php package again
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
Now try this command
sudo aptitude install php7.2-curl
Aptitude will ask you you want to keep current version of all dependencies
The following actions will resolve these dependencies: Keep the following packages at their current version: 1) php7.2-curl [Not Installed] Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?]
Type n
then Enter
Aptitude will find all dependencies and ask you to install all package type
y
Again
y
Then
systemctl restart apache2
For centos of rhel
systemctl restart httpd
It will Not enabling PHP 7.2 FPM by default. NOTICE: To enable PHP 7.2 FPM in Apache2 do
a2enmod proxy_fcgi setenvif
a2enconf php7.2-fpm
This method is not only for this error you can find any of php apache2 or ubuntu system package solution using aptitude.
