I'm trying to install package php7.2-bcmath on Ubuntu 14.4
sudo apt-get install php7.2-bcmath
but I keep getting this error:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package php7.2-bcmath
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'php7.2-bcmath'
I already try those options:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php7.2-bcmath
add this to /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu artful-security main universe
Nothing works!
Please help
You should check which PHP version is available and if you addressed the correct package name.
Use:
apt-cache search php
to check, if PHP7.2 and all the extensions are available at your environment.
Determine the correct package name of the bcmath package by searching trough all available packages:
apt-cache search php | grep bcmath
If you see an bcmath package for php7.2 use this name with the sudo apt-get install .... syntax.

Understand the error message
Package php-mysqli is a virtual package provided by:
[...]
The apt package management uses virtual packages to fulfill dependencies. A virtual package itself has no content at all. It cannot be installed directly. It is meant as an indicator that the expected software was installed to signal other packages that their dependencies are resolved.
apt tells you a list of real packages which install the virtual one. Just install the most recent one (or, if you alread have installed another PHP version, the matching version):
sudo apt install php7.3-mysql
Is it possible to install mcrypt in PHP 7.1 running on Oracle Linux 7? This is not listed in the repo here.
I thought that I might be able to install it using "yum install epel-release" and "yum -y install php-mcrypt", however the package is listed as unavailable:
yum -y install php-mcrypt
Loaded plugins: langpacks, ulninfo
No package php-mcrypt available.
I am following this tutorial to enable thread safety in php 5.6.
https://blog.bensoer.com/compile-thread-safe-php-5-6-20-from-source/
But when i am executing sudo apt-get install -y php5-dev It gives me the following output.
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package php5-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'php5-dev' has no installation candidate
How can I resolve this in Ubuntu 16.04?
sudo apt-get install -y php5.6-dev did the trick
I'm trying to install the php_http PHP extension on my CentOS server.
I have done:
yum install php-pear
But get:
No package php-pear available
Yet I can do:
pear
And get a list of commands from Pear.
Same for yum install pecl. I can do pecl but pecl install pecl_http returns:
No releases available for package "pecl.php.net/pecl_http"
install failed
Yet /usr/bin/pecl isn't a directory that exists. Also a sudo pecl install pecl_http returns sudo: pecl: command not found, which I find quite odd.
I'm not entirely sure what's going on here/what I'm doing wrong.
edit: I am using the following repos:
base CentOS-6 - Base
epel Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 6 - x86_64
extras CentOS-6 - Extras
rpmforge RHEL 6 - RPMforge.net - dag
updates CentOS-6 - Updates
vz-base vz-base
vz-updates vz-updates
On CentOS,
Install PHP Pear if not installed yet:
# yum install php-pear
Install GCC if not installed yet:
# yum install gcc
Install cURL if not installed yet:
# yum install curl-devel
Install following libraries if not installed yet:
# yum install php-devel
# yum install zlib-devel
# yum install pcre-devel
Start the main installation:
# pecl install pecl_http
Add the following line to /etc/php.ini file
extension=raphf.so
extension=propro.so
extension=http.so
Restart apache server so the extension can be loaded
# service httpd restart
You can check if it installed successfully or not:
# pecl list
Step 1) import the REMI repo
CentOS 5
rpm -Uvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm;
rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-5.rpm;
CentOS 6
rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm;
rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm;
Step 2) install php-pear
yum --enablerepo=remi,remi-php55 install php-pear
Step 3) install pecl_http
pecl install pecl_http
For other people having this problem. I discovered this question while trying to figure out why I was having the same problem. Turned out the default configuration at my hosting provider was to include php* in the exclude directive for yum. Check /etc/yum.conf and make sure that the package you're trying to install isn't matched by an entry in the exclude directive.
if you are running php 7 you might want to try this
yum install php70w-pear
if you get any errors, be sure to uninstall the pear package from any previous attempts
yum remove php-pear
best of luck
If you are using php 5.4.x, IMO best repo to use is iuscommunity. Its very stable and used by Rackspace to do only PHP and a few other packages for CentOS.
rpm -Uhv http://dl.iuscommunity.org/pub/ius/stable/CentOS/6/x86_64/ius-release-1.0-11.ius.centos6.noarch.rpm
yum install php54-pear
Mind you, the reason why its php54-pear and not php-pear is because 5.3 and 5.4 both are compiled in the repository. Here is the list of php packages -> http://dl.iuscommunity.org/pub/ius/stable/CentOS/6/x86_64/repoview/development.languages.group.html
I tested this and it works, but I only use EPEL and iuscommunity REPO's. I avoid using rpmforge myself.
Centos 6.5 and php7:
sudo su -
yum install yum-utils
you can get last version of lua : http://pecl.php.net/package/lua
wget http://pecl.php.net/get/lua-2.0.4.tgz
tar -xvzf lua-2.0.4.tgz
cd lua-2.0.4
mkdir /usr/include/lua
mv * /usr/include/lua
yum install gcc
yum install php70w-pearl php70w-devel
yum install curl-devel
yum install zlib-devel
yum install pcre-devel
ln -s /usr/include/lua.h /usr/include/lua/lua.h
rpm -Uvh https://centos6.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm
yum-config-manager --enable remi-php70
yum update
yum --enablerepo=remi,remi-php70 install php70w-pear
yum install lua-devel lua-static
pecl install lua-2.0.4
Whatever your PHP provider is (IUS, Remi or Webtatic), the pear package and the pecl extensions "should" be available there, without any need to compile it from sources (which is usually discouraged, especially on production)
At least "remi" provides most extensions, see the list
So installation should be as simple as
yum install php-pecl-http
yum install php-pecl-lua
etc
And, don't forget to read the Wizard instructions
I tried almost everything on this list before I finally realized that my WHM/cPanel installation was blocking the yum packages. I have to install all PECL modules (I was stuck trying to install mongodb on this particular occation) through the Home > Software > Module Installers inside WHM (cpanel documentation says that you have to be logged in as root).
After watching a lot of threads and installing pear and all the devtool, I finally solved it installing this extension:
yum install php-pecl-mongo
