Out of the box Centos / RHEL 7 installs PHP 5.x by default. To grab a copy of PHP first enable the EPEL Repository. Upgrading a previously installed 5.x version of PHP or performing a fresh install of PHP 7.2 can easily be performed with the following:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | yum install -y epel-release yum install -y http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm yum install -y yum-utils yum-config-manager --enable remi-php72 yum update -y yum install -y php72 yum install -y php72-php-fpm php72-php-gd php72-php-json php72-php-mbstring php72-php-mysqlnd php72-php-xml php72-php-xmlrpc php72-php-opcache php -v |
