    How to install PHP 7.* on Debian 7.* "Wheezy"


Based on this tutorial: https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/installing-php-7-on-debian-linux-8-jessie-wheezy-using-apt-get


Download Apache Dev Headers


apt-get install apache2-threaded-dev


Download PHP source


sudo apt-get install git
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/kasparsd/php-7-debian.git
cd php-7-debian/


Add APSX2 to Build.sh


You can read more here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/PHP_configuration


Use vim build.sh command to edit build.sh script


You’ll need to add line --with-apxs2=/usr/bin/apxs2 \ to your CONFIGURE_STRING and place make clean before make command.


Modified part of a build.sh:


CONFIGURE_STRING="--prefix=/usr/local/php7 \
                  --enable-huge-code-pages \
                  --with-apxs2=/usr/bin/apxs2 \

Configure alternatives


Reference [ru] https://habr.com/company/plesk/blog/306682/


$ update-alternatives --install /usr/local/bin/php php /usr/bin/php5 10x
update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/php5 to provide /usr/local/bin/php (php) in auto mode
$ update-alternatives --install /usr/local/bin/php php /usr/local/php7/bin/php 20
update-alternatives: using /usr/local/php7/bin/php to provide /usr/local/bin/php (php) in auto mode


Target alternatives to common bin


Use /usr/local/bin/php instead of /usr/bin/php


$ sudo rm /usr/bin/php
$ update-alternatives --config php
update-alternatives: warning: /etc/alternatives/php is dangling; it will be updated with best choice
There are 2 choices for the alternative php (providing /usr/local/bin/php).
