Ubuntu - Swap between PHP 5.5, 5.6 and 7.0

Hello,

This is tutorial how we can do it:

1. Install PHP 5.5:
• sudo apt-get install -y php5
2. Install PHP 5.6:
• sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
• In some case, you will need to change Ubuntu codename in this file:
• sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ondrej-ubuntu-php-xenial.list
•  sudo apt-get update
• sudo apt-get install -y php5.6
3. Install PHP 7.0:
• sudo apt-get install -y php7.0
4.   Create symlink in your .bashrc file for quick access:
• vim ~/.bashrc
• Apache2:

• #################################################
  ############### PHP Version Toggle ##############
  #################################################
  # Remove the -q to see debugging information if there are problems
  alias enphp5.5="
   sudo a2dismod php5.6 -q;
   sudo a2dismod php7.0 -q;
   sudo a2enmod php5 -q;
   sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/php5 /usr/bin/php;
   sudo service apache2 restart"
  alias enphp5.6="
   sudo a2dismod php5 -q;
   sudo a2dismod php7.0 -q;
   sudo a2enmod php5.6 -q;
   sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/php5.6 /usr/bin/php;
   sudo service apache2 restart"
  alias enphp7.0="
   sudo a2dismod php5 -q;
   sudo a2dismod php5.6 -q;
   sudo a2enmod php7.0 -q;
   sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/php7.0 /usr/bin/php;
   sudo service apache2 restart"
  

• Nginx:
• Remove apache2:
• sudo service apache2 stop
• sudo apt-get remove apache2*
• sudo apt-get purge apache2
• Install php-fpm for all versions
• sudo apt-get install php5-fpm
• sudo apt-get install php5.6-fpm
• sudo apt-get install php7.0-fpm
• Stop all php-fpm:
• sudo service php5-fpm stop
• sudo service php5.6-fpm stop
• sudo service php7.0-fpm stop

• #################################################
  ############### PHP Version Toggle ##############
  #################################################
  # Remove the -q to see debugging information if there are problems
  alias enphp5.5="
   sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/php5 /usr/bin/php;
   sudo service php5.6-fpm stop;
   sudo service php7.0-fpm stop;
   sudo service php5-fpm start;
   sudo find /etc/nginx/sites-available -type f -exec sed -i 's,/run/php/php5.6-fpm.sock,/var/run/php5-fpm.sock,g;s,/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock,/var/run/php5-fpm.sock,g' {} \;
   sudo service nginx restart"
  alias enphp5.6="
   sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/php5.6 /usr/bin/php;
   sudo service php5-fpm stop;
   sudo service php7.0-fpm stop;
   sudo service php5.6-fpm start;
   sudo find /etc/nginx/sites-available -type f -exec sed -i 's,/var/run/php5-fpm.sock,/run/php/php5.6-fpm.sock,g;s,/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock,/run/php/php5.6-fpm.sock,g' {} \;
   sudo service nginx restart"
  alias enphp7.0="
   sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/php7.0 /usr/bin/php;
   sudo service php5-fpm stop;
   sudo service php5.6-fpm stop;
   sudo service php7.0-fpm start;
   sudo find /etc/nginx/sites-available -type f -exec sed -i 's,/var/run/php5-fpm.sock,/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock,g;s,/run/php/php5.6-fpm.sock,/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock,' {} \;
   sudo service nginx restart"
  

5. Reload your new .bashrc commands:
• source ~/.bashrc
6. Done, now you can try it with:
• enphp5.5
• php -v
• enphp5.6
• php -v
• enphp7.0
• php -v

Good luck!

SSL - Installation

Hi,

There are some tutorial how to install SSL in your server:

1. Lighttpd:
1. Create ssl folder in your server
2. Create CSR file in your server: https://developers.google.com/search-appliance/kb/secure/external-ssl
• Do not using special characters in your information input to your CSR file: # $ % @...
3. Using the CSR file for buying a SSL service. After buying, you should received 2 or maybe 3 files, download and store it in your ssl folder:
• Web Server CERTIFICATE: your-site.crt
• -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  …
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
• INTERMEDIATE CA: intermediate.crt
• -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  …
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
4. Create your pem file:
• cat your-site.key your-site.crt > your-site.pem
5. This is an example config file:
• $HTTP["host"] == "your-site" {
      server.document-root = "/path/to/your/project"
  
  
      $SERVER["socket"] == ":443" {
          ssl.engine  = "enable"
          ssl.pemfile = "/path/to/your/pem/file"
          ssl.ca-file = "/path/to/your/intermediate/file"
      }
  }
6. Auto redirect all site to HTTPS:
• $SERVER["socket"] == ":80" {
      $HTTP["host"] =~ "(.*)" {
          url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)" => "https://%1/$1" )
      }
  }
7. Restart Webserver and test in your browser: https://your-site
• Amazon Server: you must enable security group HTTPS first
2. Apache:

Good luck!

MacPorts - PHP, Apache & MySQL

Hi,

These some tutorials how to install lamp server using MarPorts:

1. Install MacPorts:
1. Install Xcode
2. Launch Xcode > Preferences > Downloads > Install 'Command Line Tools'
• 
3. Go to MacPorts website and follow their structure to install MacPorts: http://www.macports.org/install.php
2. Install PHP & Apache:
1. sudo port install php5 +apache2 +mcrypt +curl +tidy +pear
2. sudo port load apache2
3. cd /opt/local/apache2/modules
4. sudo /opt/local/apache2/bin/apxs -a -e -n "php5" libphp5.so
5. sudo cp /opt/local/etc/php5/php.ini-development /opt/local/etc/php5/php.ini
6. sudo nano /opt/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf
1. Go to line 119 (In Nano: CTRL+w then CTRL+t and write 119), and enter the following lines:
• AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
• AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
7. Now, change DocumentRoot from:
1. From: DocumentRoot "/opt/local/apache2/htdocs"
2. To: DocumentRoot "/Users/Shin/sites"
8. Since we just change the documentRoot folder, we need to adjust some more settings
1. From: <Directory “/opt/local/apache2/htdocs”>
2. To: <Directory “/Users/Shin/Sites”>
9. Now all we have left to do is setting the User and Group. Exchange the following:
1. From:
• User www
• Group www
2. To:
• User Shin
• Group staff
10. sudo /opt/local/apache2/bin/apachectl restart
3. Install MySQL:
1. sudo port install mysql5 +server
2. sudo -u mysql mysql_install_db5
3. sudo chown -R mysql:mysql /opt/local/var/db/mysql5/
4. sudo chown -R mysql:mysql /opt/local/var/run/mysql5/
5. sudo chown -R mysql:mysql /opt/local/var/log/mysql5/
• If that doesn’t work try this:
• sudo mysql_install_db5 sudo chown -R mysql:mysql /opt/local/var/db/mysql5/
• sudo chown -R mysql:mysql /opt/local/var/run/mysql5/
6. sudo port load mysql5-server
7. sudo ln -s /opt/local/bin/mysql5 /opt/local/bin/mysql
8. sudo ln -s /opt/local/bin/mysqladmin5 /opt/local/bin/mysqladmin
9. Change new root password:
• mysqladmin5 -u root password 'new-password'
4. Some small bugs:
1. httpd: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using <Computer-Name>.local for ServerName
1. sudo vim /opt/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf
• ServerName localhost:80
2. If you would like to be able to access web pages in the Sites directory of your home directory
1. sudo vim /opt/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf
• Include conf/extra/httpd-userdir.conf
3. ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
1. sudo vim /opt/local/etc/mysql5/my.cnf
• [mysqld_safe]
• socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
• [client]
• socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
2. sudo vim /opt/local/etc/php5/php.ini 
• mysqli.default_socket = "/tmp/mysql.sock"

Good luck!

PHP, Apache & MySQL

Hi,

There are some tutorials active Webserver environment:

1. Apache:
1. Root folder: /Library/WebServer/Documents/
2. Start: sudo apachectl start
3. Stop: sudo apachectl stop
4. Restart: sudo apachectl graceful
2. PHP:
1. Install:
1. cd /etc && sudo cp php.ini.default php.ini
2. sudo vim httpd.conf
3. Uncomment out the hash # to leave it like:
• LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
• 
4. Restart Apache
2. Warning: date_default_timezone_get():
• sudo vim /private/etc/php.ini
• date.timezone = "UTC"
3. autoconf:
1. Install:
• Install Xcode
• Launch Xcode > Preferences > Downloads > Install 'Command Line Tools'
• 
2. Cannot find autoconf. Please check your autoconf installation and the $PHP_AUTOCONF environment variable. Then, rerun this script.
• curl -O http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/autoconf-latest.tar.gz
• tar xvfz autoconf-latest.tar.gz
• cd autoconf-2.69/
• ./configure
• make
• sudo make install
4. Missing extension:
• http://www.coolestguyplanettech.com/how-to-install-mcrypt-for-php-on-mac-osx-lion-10-7-development-server/
• Download the PHP's source code. You'll need to download the one that matches the version already installed on your system. To find out which one you're using, type php -v from the command line.
• Extract the archive you downloaded using tar -zxvf followed by the filename. Type cd php-5.4.x/ext/sqlite3/ (where "5.4.x" should be replaced with your version number and "sqlite3" can be any of the modules you want to install from your list above minus the "php_" prefix)
• Type phpize
• Type ./configure
• Type make
• Type sudo make install
• Find shared extenstions folder:
• E.G.: /usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/
• Add extension_dir = "/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626" to your php.ini
• Add extension=sqlite3.so to your php.ini (again make sure to replace sqlite3.so with the name of the other extensions if you compile the others).
• 
• Restart Apache
5. Or you can try this tutorials:
• http://php-osx.liip.ch/
3. MySQL:
1. Install:
• Go to: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
• Download DMG file for your current operation: Mac OS X ver. 10.6 (x86, 64-bit), DMG Archive
• Open the downloaded file and double click the file called mysql-x.x.xx-osx10.x-x86_64.pkg and continue through the installation
• App can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer: http://osxdaily.com/2012/07/27/app-cant-be-opened-because-it-is-from-an-unidentified-developer/
• Installation: MySQL.prefPane, MySQLStartupItem.pkg
2. Enable command line:
• sudo vim /etc/paths
• Appended the line:
• /usr/local/mysql/bin
• Restart OS
3. Missing /var/mysql/mysql.sock file:
• Check it at:
• /private/tmp/mysql.sock
• /tmp/mysql.sock
• /usr/local/mysql/run/mysql_socket
• Try create symbolic link for: /var/mysql/mysql.sock
• sudo ln -s /private/tmp/mysql.sock /var/mysql/mysql.sock
• sudo ln -s /tmp/mysql.sock /var/mysql/mysql.sock
• sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/run/mysql_socket /var/mysql/mysql.sock
