I just recently launched LAMP version 7.0 using bitnami on google app engine.
I couldn't find the older version of 5.6.
Any idea how i can downgrade the default PHP 7 to PHP 5.6 on my server
upon running this commandphp --version
i get this output

kindly note that i have also installed PHP 5 using sudo apt-get install php5 libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mcrypt
but the dafault PHP version remains PHP 7.0.22
It is possible just to install the version of php you need. and change the set-up.
ssh into your VM from your console or
gcloud compute ssh [INSTANCE NAME] --ZONE [INSTANCE ZONE]
Inside your VM do:
If add-apt-repository is not installed
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common python-software-properties
then:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php5.6 php5.6-mysql php-gettext php5.6-mbstring php-mbstring php7.0-mbstring php-xdebug libapache2-mod-php5.6 libapache2-mod-php7.0
Apache:
sudo a2dismod php7.0 ; sudo a2enmod php5.6 ; sudo service apache2 restart
CLI:
sudo update-alternatives --set php /usr/bin/php5.6
Bitnami Stacks are self-contained. That means that they include every component they need (e.g. Apache, PHP, PHP-FPM, MySQL, etc.).
Those components are not installed using the System Package Manager of the Distro (e.g. yum on Centos or apt on Debian). Therefore, if you install a different version of PHP on your Image, you'll have two different PHPs installed. The one in the system and the one in the Stack. However, every component included in the Stack will use the PHP included in the Stack (no matter what version you installed in the system).
You can find the PHP in the LAMP Stack at /opt/bitnami/php. If you want to use PHP 5.X you have several options:
A. Download and install the LAMP Stack with PHP 5.6.x from https://bitnami.com/stack/lamp/installer on your server. After that, remove the previous LAMP Stack with PHP 7.
B. Install PHP using the System Package Manager. Then, modify the environment to remove /opt/bitnami/php from the PATH and also edit the file /opt/bitnami/scristps/setenv.sh to avoid including /opt/bitnami/php again in the PATH.

I have Centos 7 and Virtualmin installed, with the tipycal php-fpm 5.4, 7.0, 7.1 that you can choice between the versions you prefer on every virtualhost via Virtualmin control panel, and everything works well.
But when I access to the server via SSH and check php -v I get this:
PHP 5.4.16 (cli) (built: Oct 30 2018 19:30:51)

How can I select another php default/base version for the shell system?
When you issue the php command on the shell it uses the default php version on the server which in your case is php-5.4.16
To use another php version, you have to check where the binaries for those php versions are and invoke them with their full path rather than just typing php.
For example, on CentOS, for PHP 7.2 for example, the full path of the php binary is: /opt/rh/rh-php72/root/usr/bin/php
root#virtualmin /root
» /opt/rh/rh-php72/root/usr/bin/php -v

I had an outdated version of PHP on my system, so attempted to upgrade from 5.5.9 to 5.6.
I followed the following steps on my Digital Ocean Ubuntu droplet:
I installed Ondřej Surý's PPA and selected 5.6 as well as other packages related to the main one, like the XML package.
When I do php -v on my server, it says
PHP 5.6.29-1+deb.sury.org~trusty+1 (cli)
Copyright (c) 1997-2016 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.6.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2016 Zend Technologies
with Zend OPcache v7.0.6-dev, Copyright (c) 1999-2016, by Zend Technologies
This indicated to me that the update went through.
But when I restart my apache server and check the error logs, it says
Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.5.9-1ubuntu4.20 configured -- resuming normal operations
I believe the latest version of Magento on my server is giving me this error (HTTP 500) because it is using the wrong version of PHP...
How do I fix this? Thank you.
The digital ocean community site here offered a couple of extra commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php5.6 php5.6-mbstring php5.6-mcrypt php5.6-mysql php5.6-xml
sudo a2dismod php5
sudo a2enmod php5.6
sudo service apache2 restart
Note the a2dismod and a2enmod steps. The post says:
Without the a2dismod/a2ensmod steps, Apache will continue to see your older version of PHP, even if command line is seeing the new version.
I have installed php 5.3 manually by executing commands like make & make install. But I need to upgrade it to v5.5 therefore I deleted all the directories related to php5 using sudo command.
But when I run php -v Still I am getting

Please help me to remove
The below answer credit goes to Maythux
To uninstall something you installed from source, you would use cd back into the directory you built it from and then run sudo make uninstall but I don't think this will work with PHP since it doesn't have an uninstall.
So what you can do is to make a package from the existing compiled version you have and then you could install the new created package over the old one, and if this works you can remove it. First install checkinstall if you dont have it:
sudo apt-get install checkinstall
Then run:
cd php-5.3.29
sudo checkinstall
Accept all the defaults.The result will be a phpXX.deb package, so try to install it, this will replace the old files from the compiled package:
sudo dpkg -i phpXX.deb
If this goes smooth then you are near to have it. Now purge the package:
sudo apt-get purge phpXX.deb
What to do if this doesn't work
you should remove all files manually
locate php5
Then remove the files and install a new version with apt-get again
I'm trying to install php 5.6 on Amazon linux using the following command:
$ yum install php56
No package php56 available.
Error: Nothing to do
Is there a repository I need to add in order to do this? I've searched for this but couldn't find any source. I'd also like to know which Apache versions work with this version of php?
Below are the steps I have used to update PHP version from 5.3 to 5.6 in Amazon Linux
Steps (Use sudo only if required)
1) Remove OLD Apache
sudo service httpd stop
sudo yum erase httpd httpd-tools apr apr-util
2) Remove OLD PHP
sudo yum remove php-*
3) Install PHP 5.6 (Apache 2.4 will be automatically installed with this)
sudo yum install php56
4) Make sure all the required PHP extensions are installed
yum list installed | grep php
5) If not then install them using
sudo yum install php56-xml php56-xmlrpc php56-soap php56-gd
6) To list the other available php extensions
yum search php56
7) PHP 5.6 MySQL extension (Assume you have already installed MySQL)
sudo yum install php56-mysqlnd
(NOTE: it is not php56-mysql)
8) Start / Restart Apache
sudo service httpd start
sudo service httpd restart
9) Check the version
php -v
httpd -v
AWS has not yet packaged php 5.6. You need to install php 5.5 from the ALAMI repositories, or build 5.6 from source.
To list the available 5.5 packages use yum search php55
The php55 is the base package, but you may need others listed as well.
When 5.6 is ready, you'll be able to find it with
yum search php56
You can find information on building the source at php.net, specifically Installation on Unix Systems / Apache 2.x on Unix Systems
Just to mantain update the answers,
I tryed the proposed solution and didn't work.
Quite hard to install 5.6
I found the right command nowaday to install 7.2 is
amazon-linux-extras install php7.2
it install and upgrade everything without complications.
Try this:
sudo yum -y update
sudo yum install –y https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
sudo wget https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
sudo wget https://centos7.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh ius-release*.rpm
sudo yum -y update
When you install the package you'll need to add a u to the end of php56. Here is an example of some packages you could install.
sudo yum -y install php56u php56u-opcache php56u-xml \
php56u-mcrypt php56u-gd php56u-devel php56u-mysql \
php56u-intl php56u-mbstring php56u-bcmath php56u-soap
Successfully installed php56 and required php-module on amazonlinux2 with the repo epo.ius.io.
sudo yum -y update
sudo yum install –y https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
wget https://repo.ius.io/ius-release-el7.rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh ius-release*.rpm
sudo yum -y update
sudo yum install --enablerepo=ius-archive php56u php56u-opcache php56u-xml php56u-mcrypt php56u-gd php56u-devel php56u-mysql php56u-intl php56u-mbstring php56u-bcmath php56u-soap
Check PHP version with below command
[root#ip-10-10-1-47 ~]# php -v

Additional part from #Daniele post for resloving this problem.
This is more help than question, but to help other with problem which I had in my case. I need to install Wordpress site on EC2, but when I tried to run it with public IP address, it was problem. I tried to install php 5.6, but it was not possible.
I find solution to install php 7.2, using command:
**amazon-linux-extras install php7.2**
TO check that is really version php 7.2, use:
php -version or php -v
After this, you need to stop apache service, command for stop is:
service httpd stop
Start again apache service:
service httpd start
In your AWS console, go to Instance, find public IP address, copy and open in browser. You should see the WordPress page. You can install WordPress in Advanced part (bootstraping), when you create EC2 instance.
How do I install the bcmath module on a server? I tried
yum update php-bcmath
but it said it found nothing.
Try yum install php-bcmath.
If you still can't find anything, try yum search bcmath to find the package name
ubuntu and php7.1
sudo apt install php7.1-bcmath
ubuntu and php without version specification
sudo apt install php-bcmath
yum install php72-php-bcmath.x86_64
cp /etc/opt/remi/php72/php.d/20-bcmath.ini /etc/php.d/
cp /opt/remi/php72/root/usr/lib64/php/modules/bcmath.so /usr/lib64/php/modules/
systemctl restart httpd
Not sure why I had to go so deep considering the yum install gave me bcmath in phpinfo()
Worked great on CentOS 6.5
yum install bcmath
All my calls to bcmath functions started working right after an apache restart
service httpd restart
Sweet!
When using the official PHP images of Docker, use docker-php-ext-install bcmath.
Source: https://hub.docker.com/_/php?tab=description#php-core-extensions
Was getting call to undefined function bcmod()
yum install php-bcmath
systemctl restart httpd.service
you should then see something similar to /etc/php.d/bcmath.ini listed under phpinfo.
Centos 7
Plesk 12
PHP 5.4.16
If you have installed php 7.1
then this line work on your system.
sudo apt install php7.1-bcmath
check your php version in your system on ubuntu 16.04
php -v
and then result show there..

The following worked for me on Centos 7.4 with PHP 7.1 using remi repository.
First find out which PHP version I have:
[kiat#reporting ~]$ php --version
PHP 7.1.33 (cli) (built: Oct 23 2019 07:28:45) ( NTS )
Copyright (c) 1997-2018 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v3.1.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2018 Zend Technologies
with Zend OPcache v7.1.33, Copyright (c) 1999-2018, by Zend Technologies
Then search for bcmath extension in remi-php71 repository:
[kiat#reporting ~]$ yum search php71 | grep bcmath
php71-php-bcmath.x86_64 : A module for PHP applications for using the bcmath
php71u-bcmath.x86_64 : A module for PHP applications for using the bcmath
Now install the first matching extension:
[kiat#reporting ~]$ sudo yum --enablerepo=remi-php71 install php-bcmath
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks
base | 3.6 kB 00:00
.
.
.
Finally, restart php and nginx:
[kiat#reporting ~]$ sudo systemctl restart php-fpm nginx
I found that the repo that had the package was not enabled. On OEL7,
$ vi /etc/yum.repos.d/ULN-Base.repo
Set enabled to 1 for ol7_optional_latest
$ yum install php-bcmath
and that worked...
I used the following command to find where the package was
$ yum --noplugins --showduplicates --enablerepo \* --disablerepo \*-source --disablerepo C5.\*,c5-media,\*debug\*,\*-source list \*bcmath
If you want to enable any extension then you have to install an extension first, extension maybe enabled but not installed, so taking the example of bcmath
yum search php-bcmath
Then ensure the php version in which u want to install this extension
You will get output like after yum search command>>
yum search php-bcmath**

You can install any extension from the above steps.
In Ubuntu PHP 7.3
sudo apt install php7.3-bcmath
To enable bcmath in Arch Linux or Manjaro
Edit php.ini
nano /etc/php/php.ini
Uncomment bcmath (remove semicolon)
extension=bcmath
If you are using Apache server reload the server by
sudo systemctl reload apache.server
Or
sudo systemctl realod httpd
If you don't use Apache
sudo systemctl reload php-fpm.service
To see the activated modules
php -m
To make sure the bcmath is installed and activated, search for it
php -m | grep bcmath
This worked for me install php72-php-bcmath.x86_64
Then,
systemctl restart php72-php-fpm.service
For PHP 7+ version you can use only:
sudo apt install php-bcmath
I just tried below package for php v5.6 and it worked for me.
yum install php56w-bcmath
apt repo have this extension, just run the below command from your terminal ::
sudo apt-get install php7.2-bcmath*
If still anyone is not getting how to install bcmath as it has lots of other dependant modules to install like php7.2-common, etc.
Try using synaptic application, to install the same. fire command.\
sudo apt-get install synaptic
Open the synaptic application and then click on search tab.
search for bcmath
search results will show all the packages depends on php.
Install as per your convenience.
and install with all auto populated dependancies it required to install.
That's it.
For Centos 7 with php7.0
Install CentOS SCLo RH repository: yum install centos-release-scl-rh
Install rh-php71-php-bcmath rpm package: yum install rh-php71-php-bcmath
systemctl restart httpd.service
If you want to install PHP extensions in ubuntu.
first know which PHP version is active.
php -v
After that install needed plugin using this command.
sudo apt install php7.0-bcmath
you can replace php7.0-bcmath to php-PHPVersion-extensionName
