The post Install PHP 7.0 (phpng) on CentOS & RedHat appeared first on Justin Silver.
]]>This guide will show how to install PHP 7.0 on RedHat and CentOS Linux. This version of PHP is also known as PHPNG to indicate it is the “next generation” of PHP. Many fundamental improvements have been made – for example WordPress sites should see a 100% performance increase switching from PHP 5.6 to PHP 7.0.
Use yum to install the dependencies we’ll need using the following command.
yum install -y \
autoconf \
bison \
curl-devel \
gcc \
git \
freetype\
freetype-devel \
libpng\
libpng-devel \
libxml2\
libxml2-devel \
libXpm\
libXpm-devel \
libmcrypt \
libmcrypt-devel \
mysql \
mysql-devel \
openssl \
openssl-devel \
recode \
recode-devel
If you are running a recent version of your operating system, you can use yum to install bison. Note that it needs to be at least version 2.7 to compile PHPNG. As of the writing the latest for CentOS 5 on a yum repository is version 2.3, so you will need to install from source (below).
curl -O http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bison/bison-2.7.1.tar.gz tar -xvf bison-2.7.1.tar.gz cd bison-2.7.1 ./configure make && make install
Now we need to clone the PHP-7.0.0 branch of the PHP source and compile it using the built in scripts.
git clone -b PHP-7.0.0 https://github.com/php/php-src.git
cd php-src
./buildconf --force
./configure \

make -j`grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo` && make install
By default OS X will use the PHP binary located at /usr/bin/php, which as of this writing is PHP 5.5. To have PHPNG take precedence, will need to symlink to the /usr/local/bin directory. Run php -v to make sure you have the correct version, and if it’s not what you expected try which php to see the location that is being selected based on your $PATH.

To start you will need to install Brew so that we can use it to install additional dependencies. Open Terminal and at the prompt enter the following.
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Once Brew is installed, install the dependencies we’ll need using the following command. Make sure you have tapped homebrew/versions to access all dependencies (it won’t hurt to run it again if you’ve think you’ve tapped it, but aren’t sure).
brew tap homebrew/versions
brew install \
autoconf \
automake \
bison27 \
freetype \
gd \
gettext \
git \
mariadb \
mcrypt \
t1lib \
zlib
Now we need to clone the PHP-7.0.0 branch of the PHP source and compile it using the built in scripts.
git clone -b PHP-7.0.0 https://github.com/php/php-src.git
cd php-src
./buildconf --force
env YACC=`brew --prefix bison27`/bin/bison ./configure \
--prefix="/usr/local/opt/phpng" \
--with-config-file-path="/usr/local/etc/phpng" \
--enable-bcmath \
--enable-calendar \
--enable-exif \
--enable-ftp \

--with-mcrypt=`brew --prefix mcrypt` \

--with-pdo-mysql=`brew --prefix mariadb` \
--with-png-dir=`brew --prefix gd` \
--with-zlib=`brew --prefix zlib`
make -j`sysctl -n hw.logicalcpu_max`
Now create the package installer and complete the installation via the GUI.
env INSTALL_ROOT=$PWD/phpng-pkg make install
pkgbuild \
--root phpng-pkg \
--identifier net.php.phpng \
--version 7.0.0-dev \
--ownership recommended \
phpng-dev.pkg
open phpng-dev.pkg
