How to Install PHP 8.2 in CentOS 8 Stream
PHP is a script language and interpreter that is freely available and used primarily on Linux Web servers.
To install PHP 8.2, we’ll need to add/enable the Remi RPM repositories which contain the PHP 8.2 packages that we need.
Pre-requisites :
-
A system with CentOS 8 Stream installed and running.
- root access to the system.
Installing the EPEL and Remi Repository
For this, we use the PHP 8.2 packaged by Remi,
First, let us install the EPEL repository,
dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpmNext, install the Remi repository with the following command,
dnf -y install https://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-8.rpmOutput:
[root@vps ~]# dnf module install php:remi-8.2
