Please note: This works fine. But this package will also upgrade your apache to version 2.4 which has different config files than apache 2.2 and even deletes stuff, like?/etc/apache2/sites-available/defaultwhen upgrading. This may result in a loss of your apache settings (vhost, mod_rewrite stuff etc.). Be aware of that ! This shit cost me a full weekend. This affects only upgrades, not fresh installs for sure.?Update:?This is a known bug (more here), I’ll keep this post updated…
There’s an excellent and (usually) hassle-free method to install the latest version of PHP5 (which is 5.5.3 when i’m writing this) with 3 simple bash commands:
1. Add this package-repository to your system. If Ubuntu says that you need to download a key first, then follow the instructions given in the notice.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php5
If you get an error message now, then please do an update first and install the python-software-properties, that need to be necessary to add a package repository:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
2. Update
sudo apt-get update
3. Install PHP
sudo apt-get install php5
更新过程中可能会出现The package openfire needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it的错误。
使用命令将openfire卸载掉:?dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq openfire
Check the installed version of PHP via
php5 -v
Please note: The ondrej/php5 repository (which is used here) provides the very latest version of PHP. Usually the new version of PHP is available a few days after it was been officially released. This is really cool and a big step forward as Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS etc. provide only very old versions by default.
It’s also possible to update from any PHP version to the latest one with exactly the commands above. But, after doing
sudo apt-get install php5
you’ll have to restart the server with
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
or
sudo service apache2 restart
By the way, I’ve also written a tutorial on “How to setup latest version of PHP 5.5 on Debian Wheezy 7.0/7.1/7.2 (and how to fix the GPG key error)“, which is different from this here.
