    @Arrowhead-IT I ran

    rpm -Uvh  http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm
    yum-config-manager --enable remi-php70
    yum -y update
    

    Then updated to the latest trunk

    I didn’t see it do anything different with php packages in the FOG install, certainly did in yum -y update though.
    Not sure how to tell which version of php that fog is using. I’m sure there’s a way but I don’t know it off the top of my head.
    I know that php 7 is indeed installed though

    php -v
    
    PHP 7.0.3 (cli) (built: Feb  3 2016 11:30:45) ( NTS )
    Copyright (c) 1997-2016 The PHP Group
    Zend Engine v3.0.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2016 Zend Technologies
    

    The dashboard certainly did load noticeably faster too.
    So I think that the above method did the trick.
    You may not even need to add the rpm, just enable remi-php70 with yum config mngr. It told me I already had the repo when I added it.

    Hope this helps someone else update too.

    Have you tried the FogApi powershell module? It's pretty cool IMHO

      There are large improvements in efficiency, I understand. It’s one of the best reasons to move to 7. Of course there are likely security and functionality improvements as well.

        On ubuntu (after manually setting up the packages for php7.0 in .fogsettings) the install script fails at backing up database.

        Also, there is no php7.0-mysqlnd yet as far as I know, so using version 5 for now.

          @Quazz This is really why I say to play with Ubuntu.

          I’ve added code to the installer to help with ubuntu when I can figure out what’s going on and needed for PHP 7 to work. One of the dependencies I’ve noticed is not used as a service, which is php-fpm.

          I can install php7.0-fpm, but there is not a service file associated with it.

          This is why the instructions I gave in this posting: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/6285/php-7-0-0-finally-released/2# was not really saying you SHOULD use php 7.0 on debian/ubuntu as I don’t know what info to call out and what not to call out.

          I have tried installing php 7.0 on Ubuntu 15.10 and Debian 8 but I have not had any luck on getting it to work.

                      Update (don’t install yet) to the latest trunk via Git or SVN, then…

                      Edit /opt/fog/.fogsettings (or just comment out this line):

                      packages=''
                      

                      Purge everything php5:

                      sudo service apache2 stop
                      
                      sudo apt-get purge -y php5 php5-common php5-json php5-gd php5-cli php5-curl php5-mysqlnd php5-fpm php5-mcrypt php5-readline libapache2-mod-php5
                      
                      sudo rm -rf /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ondrej-ubuntu-php5-5_6-wily.list
                      sudo rm -rf /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.conf
                      sudo rm -rf /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.load
                      

                      Install php7.0:

                      sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ondrej/php-7.0
                      
                      sudo apt-get update
                      
                      sudo apt-get install -y libapache2-mod-php7.0 php7.0 php7.0-phpdbg php7.0-readline php7.0-cgi libphp7.0-embed php7.0-cli php7.0-common php7.0-curl php7.0-fpm php7.0-json php7.0-mcrypt php7.0-mysql php7.0-opcache php7.0-gd php php-cli php-common php-curl php-gd php-mcrypt php-mysql php-readline
                      

                      Edit /lib/ubuntu/config.sh (lines 19-23, 81, delete line 82):

                      php_ver=7.0
                      php_verAdds="-7.0"
                      repo="php${php_verAdds}"
                      [[ $php_ver != 7.0 ]] && phpcmd="php" || phpcmd="php"
                      [[ $php_ver != 7.0 ]] && phpfpm="php-fpm${php_ver}" || phpfpm="php7.0-fpm"
                      
                      [[ $php_ver != 7.0 ]] && phpini="/etc/$phpcmd/$php_ver/apache2/php.ini" || phpini="/etc/$phpcmd/$php_ver/apache2/php.ini"
                      

                      That’s it 🙂 then install the current trunk that you already updated to and the install should finish without errors.

                      If I had to guess I’d imagine that my work on config.sh could be simplified or improved but this always works and I don’t ever have to worry about php5 trying to re-install via .fogsettings.

                      Please feel free to use any/all of these steps as any of you please. I’m no expert on php but I can’t see any reason why the latest FOG shouldn’t be pure php7.0.

                      Feedback is always welcome 🙂

                        I’ve modified the installer a bit to allow for this.

                        If you want to give this a shot, yes you will have to first remove all of the existing php5 stuff.

                        I do it simpler with:

                        apt-get purge -y php* lib*php

                        However you do it is up to you.

                        I’ve made it so you can actually just add the info to your /opt/fog/.fogsettings (of course remove the packages as described as well.

                        Instead of modifying the core installer information add these lines to your .fogsettings file – before the packages line:

                        php_ver="7.0"
                        php_verAdds="-7.0"
                        repo="php-${php_ver}"

                            @Tom-Elliott This works, except it looks for php.ini in /etc/php/apache2/php.ini rather than /etc/php/apache2/7.0/php.ini (which causes the install to fail)

                            Have to admit I’m not a fan of how they decided to change basic structures like that.

                              @Quazz that doesn’t make any sense.

                              The path found should be /etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini or /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

                              I don’t quite understand why yours is backwards.

                              The line that handles this in lib/ubuntu/config.php is 81.

                              Here’s what I have it set as:

                              [[ $php_ver != 5 ]] && phpini="/etc/$phpcmd/$php_ver/apache2/php.ini" || phpini="/etc/$phpcmd/apache2/php.ini"

                                @Tom-Elliott Thanks for the help, looks like the updating to the newest version didn’t properly merge the config file so it still had php_ver set to 7.0 which would produce the results I experienced.

                                I can confirm that it works now.

                                    Latest svn update causes install to fail at php7.0-mbstring (as it does not exist), which is rather confusing as I can’t find that package in the ubuntu install script or anywhere else for that matter.
