=============================================
Installing PHP 5.6 on RHEL 6/7 and CentOS 6/7
=============================================
Red Hat Enterprise Linux and CentOS 6 still ship with PHP 5.3. Nextcloud
requires PHP 5.6 or better. There are several third-party repositories that
supply PHP 5.6, but you must use the Software Collections (SCL) repository to
be in compliance with your RHEL support contract, and not any other third-party
repository.
RHEL 6
------
Follow these steps to install PHP 5.6 from SCL. First you must use
your Subscription Manager to enable SCL in RHEL 6::
subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-server-rhscl-6-eus-rpms
For RHEL 7::
subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-server-rhscl-7-eus-rpms
Then install PHP 5.6 and these modules::
yum install rh-php56 rh-php56-php rh-php56-php-gd rh-php56-php-mbstring
You must also install the updated database module for your database. This
installs the new PHP 5.6 module for MySQL/MariaDB::
yum install rh-php56-php-mysqlnd
If you are using the Nextcloud LDAP app, you need this module::
yum install rh-php56-php-ldap
Disable loading the old PHP 5.3 Apache module::
mv /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/php53.off
Copy the PHP 5.6 Apache modules into place::
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.d/rh-php56-php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/10-rh-php56-php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/modules/librh-php56-php5.so /etc/httpd/modules/
Then restart Apache::
service httpd restart
Verify with :ref:`label-phpinfo` that your Apache server is using PHP 5.6 and loading
the correct modules.
CentOS 6/7
----------
First install the SCL repo::
yum install centos-release-scl
Then install PHP 5.6 and these modules::
yum install rh-php56 rh-php56-php rh-php56-php-gd rh-php56-php-mbstring
You must also install the updated database module for your database. This
installs the new PHP 5.6 module for MySQL/MariaDB::
yum install rh-php56-php-mysqlnd
If you are using the Nextcloud LDAP app, you need this module::
yum install rh-php56-php-ldap
Disable loading the old PHP 5.3 Apache module::
mv /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/php53.off
Copy the PHP 5.6 Apache modules into place::
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.d/rh-php56-php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/10-rh-php56-php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/modules/librh-php56-php5.so /etc/httpd/modules/
Finally, restart Apache::
service httpd restart
Verify with :ref:`label-phpinfo` that your Apache server is using PHP 5.6 and loading
the correct modules.

=========================================
Installing PHP 7.0 on RHEL 7 and CentOS 7
=========================================
PHP 5.4 has been end-of-life since September 2015 and is no longer supported by the PHP team. RHEL 7 still ships with PHP 5.4, and Red Hat supports it. Nextcloud 11+ requires PHP 5.6 or better, so upgrading to 5.6 is required. For more information see :ref:`label-php56installation`. However, it is highly recommended to upgrade to PHP 7.0+ for best security and performance.
**Before upgrading, evaluate all of your PHP apps for compatibility with PHP 7.0.**
RHEL 7 Upgrade to PHP 7.0
-------------------------
To upgrade to PHP 7.0, you must use the Software Collections (SCL) repository to be in compliance with your RHEL support contract, and not any other third-party repository. Follow these steps to install PHP 7.0 from SCL. First you must use your Subscription Manager to enable SCL::
subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-server-rhscl-7-eus-rpms
Then install PHP 7.0 and these modules::
yum install rh-php70 rh-php70-php rh-php70-php-gd rh-php70-php-mbstring
You must also install the updated database module for your database. This installs the new PHP 7.0 module for MySQL/MariaDB::
yum install rh-php70-php-mysqlnd
If you are using the Nextcloud LDAP app, you need this module::
yum install rh-php70-php-ldap
Disable loading the old PHP Apache modules by changing their names::
mv /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/php54.off
mv /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/10-php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/10-php54.off
Copy the PHP 7.0 Apache modules into place::
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.d/rh-php70-php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/15-rh-php70-php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/modules/librh-php70-php7.so /etc/httpd/modules/
Then restart Apache::
service httpd restart
Verify with ``phpinfo`` that your Apache server is using PHP 7.0 and loading the
correct modules; see :ref:`label-phpinfo` to learn how to use phpinfo.
CentOS 7 Upgrade to PHP 7.0
---------------------------
To upgrade to PHP 7.0, use the Red Hat Software Collections (SCL) repository.
**Before upgrading, evaluate all of your PHP apps for compatibility with PHP 7.0.**
Follow these steps to install PHP 7.0 from SCL. First install the SCL repository::
yum install centos-release-scl
Then install PHP 7.0 and these modules::
yum install rh-php70 rh-php70-php rh-php70-php-gd rh-php70-php-mbstring
You must also install the updated database module for your database. This installs the new PHP 7.0 module for MySQL/MariaDB::
yum install rh-php70-php-mysqlnd
If you are using the Nextcloud LDAP app, you need this module::
yum install rh-php70-php-ldap
Disable loading the old PHP Apache modules by changing their names::
mv /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/php54.off
mv /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/10-php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/10-php54.off
Copy the PHP 7.0 Apache modules into place::
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.d/rh-php70-php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/15-rh-php70-php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/
cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/modules/librh-php70-php7.so /etc/httpd/modules/
Then restart Apache::
service httpd restart
Verify with ``phpinfo`` that your Apache server is using PHP 7.0 and loading the
correct modules; see :ref:`label-phpinfo` to learn how to use ``phpinfo``.
