I am on Ubuntu 20.04 running LAMP with php7.4, and NC 24.05.
As far as I can determine there isn’t a php8.1-redis package for Ubuntu 20.04 (please correct me if I am wrong, by providing a repo)…
At the same time some apps are dropping support for php7.4 (EOL)…
My webhosting company doesn’t yet support Ubuntu 22.04… So I am faced with the quandry… Should I just disable apps that can’t support php7.4 or is there some other option workaround that I should try?
sudo apt install software-properties-common && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php -y
@just I have php8.1 installed and I have the ppa:ondrej/php repo installed as well. What I can’t find… is the the php8.1-redis module for ubuntu 20.04…
php8.1-redis module seems to only be available on 22.04, in which case my php upgrade has been thwarted as my webhost currently only supports 20.04.
Am I mistaken?
In this case ask your webhost directly. Since they provide your infrastructure, they should be able to help you with directly.
The webhost provider provides 20.04… they don’t support Nextcloud.
So, I will ask a more direct question.
Has anyone been able to put Nextcloud on php8.1, while running ubuntu 20.04?
If so, how?
If not… just don’t reply…
I’m saying to ask your webhost with help installing that php 8.1 package. fwiw, that is a super normal thing to want help with.
Any webhost should be able, and even willing, to help you. Honestly, they should provide documentation as well.
I’m hopeful that they will at least be willing to assist you in getting the package properly installed since they are not supporting 22.04 (good luck!)
Yes I have. But I installed it on a standard Ubuntu 20.04 server installation. You on the other hand are talking about a webhost? You also said you added ppa:ondrej/php, but adding PPAs is usually not something you can do on a regular web hosting plan. So what hosting plan do you use exactly? Do you have command line access as root or with a sudo user? How exactley did you add the PPA?
What’s the output of
apt policy
and
dpkg --get-selections | grep php
Is there some management panel like C-Panel or Plesk installed? Many of these panels use their own mechanisms to manage diffrent PHP versions, web server config etc, so it’s possible that even if you were able to add the PPA, it still wouldn’t use the packages you installed from there…
My webhost doesn’t support 22.04 yet, but I use a private disk image with Virtualmin Pro Control Panel, which means that I can add / change whatever ppa’s I want. What’s blocking my upgrade is that I don’t know how to get php8.1-redis module installed on ubuntu 20.04, the isn’t a specific pacakge available from what I can find.

Hmm, that’s a bit strange. I’m also running Ubuntu 20.04 and I definitely have the php8.1-redis package installed.
What’s the output of…
apt list php8.1-redis
@bb77… I think I just cracked it… when I ran apt list php8.1-redis it had zero output… and although my test prod server are suppose to have the same exact repos… I also ran apt list php8.1-redis on prod and I got a hit:
# apt list php8.1-redis
Listing... Done
php8.1-redis/focal,now 5.3.7+4.3.0-1+ubuntu20.04.1+deb.sury.org+2 amd64 [installed,automatic]
From there I went into Vmin and examined the repos on both prod and test. They were Identical.
Solution: delete and reinstall the same exact repo on my test machine.
After, I did that I got same hit as above…
Between my test server repo misbehaving and the packages.ubuntu.com website, quite oddly, not listing php8.1-redis as being available for ubuntu 20.04… I got flustered and made this post.
Now that I can actually install the php8.1-redis module, I should be able to complete my upgrade from here.
Thanks for your help.
That would have been my next suggestion. Glad it worked out.
