[Scott B]

I’m having an issue with the most recent svn. It keeps failing on Installing package: php7.0-*libapache2-mod-php7.0.

Ubuntu 14.04

What does it say when you try to manually install the libapache for php7?

@scottb did you edit these files yourself?

The fog install? No.

Did the lines in /opt/fog/.fogsettings get edited to use php7? I don’t set things to php7.

in .fogsettings I see this line.

packages=" apache2 php7.0 php7.0-*libapache2-mod-php7.0";

@Scott-B do you know who did edit this?

Especially considering the .fogsettings is now saying it only installs three files, and really I believe it’s supposed to be 4 files, but they made a typo in this file.

packages=" apache2 php7.0 php7.0-* libapache2-mod-php7.0";

I imagine is what is supposed to be there, but really that shouldn’t be their either. None of the installer files are using php7 formatted files, they’re all (unfortunately) still trying to use php5 formatted binary runs. (php5enmod vs. php7enmod) That much more reasoning that I hate ubuntu, and I suppose debian for assuming php5 was all there was going to be.

I was able to get PHP7 installed, but now the install fails setting up apache and php. Looking for PHP5, which wouldn’t the install have just removed?

@Scott-B do you see why?

It’s trying to edit the file /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini which would, in your case, be now /etc/php7/apache2/php.ini (assuming ubuntu is following the same pattern)

I see what its doing, but I don’t understand why. The installed just removed php5, installed php7, so why is it looking for php5?

[Tom Elliott]

@Scott-B What I’m saying, somebody edited something in the code.

I’m not enforcing any PHP 7 anywhere.

Edit the /opt/fog/.fogsettings file and remove the packages line. Then try re-installing. Maybe it’ll work better?
