Hi friends.
I present to you for review the script wich automaticly install in Ubuntu PHP 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4 8.0 and integrate it in VestaCP.
The script and tutorial you can get on https://github.com/rikcage/vst-php-selector
I tested it on Ubuntu 18.04 but I think it should work on ather OS as Debian and olds OS of Ubuntu and Debian.

Please your reviews.

Hi, friends.
At the moment the script works only on Ubuntu 18.04.

In the Inet there are a lot of tutorials how to install php 7.3-8.0 on Ubuntu 14.04/16.04.
The main idea is

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt -y install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt -y install php7.4

I try it on Ubuntu 14.04/16.04 but I see message like that
Package php7.4 does not exist

May be someone has installed php7.4 on Ubuntu 14.04/16.04 share your experience.

Soon I`ll try to test it for Debian.

May be your experience will help to inprove this script.

Deb.sury does not support Ubuntu 14.04 / 16.04 any more so no change to make it work with this method.
