Read Carefully! Breaking changes in compare with native PHP package

Console version /usr/bin/php56 is installed with php56-cli subpackage, php56 doesn't include it anymore!!!

PEAR and PECL are available as php56-pear and php56-pecl subpackages

All shared modules are respresented as stand-alone subpackages and are not included with php56 package anymore.

No more extensions in php.ini itself!

Separate INI files for each extension are placed in /etc/php56/conf.d

They are loaded in correct order according to priority

PHP 5.6 will stop getting security updates in January 2019. Consider upgrading to PHP 7 now

PLEASE READ : For those who are getting "unknown public key" errors, this is NOT caused by this package. It means GPG is not configured to fetch public keys automatically (which is normal by default)

Please read the instructions at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Makepkg#Signature_checking

The easiest way to overcome this is to manually import the keys from a keyserver :

$ gpg --keyserver hkp://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-keys C2BF0BC433CFC8B3 FE857D9A90D90EC1

foxxx and I have been working together and this package can now be installed along PHP 7 from the official repos. Everything has been moved into separate directories : Config : /etc/php56 Extensions : /usr/lib/php56/modules Binaries : /usr/bin/php56, /usr/bin/php56-cgi, /usr/bin/phar56, etc. If you were previously using this as a replacement for php7, you'll have to adjust the new configuration files in /etc/php56/ to reflect the current ones in /etc/php/. Apache module (provided by php56-apache) also has a specific configuration and CAN NOT cohabit with php7_module. Use php-fpm, fcgi or cgi if you need both versions. The apache module is installed as libphp56.so, so you should use the following lines your httpd.conf : # Load php 5.6 module LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp56.so # Use it for .php extensions Include conf/extra/php56_module.conf Please let me know if you encounter any problem or have a suggestion.

@jboadas your gpg output indicates it only processed one key, I suggest you check that you copied the command correctly with the two arguments or you can just import the missing key

$ gpg --keyserver hkp://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys FE857D9A90D90EC1

With that said, I suggest you upgrade to PHP 7 because PHP 5.6 security updates will stop in 2 months.

This is not working, I get this error gpg --keyserver hkp://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys C2BF0BC433CFC8B3 FE857D9A90D90EC1 gpg: key C2BF0BC433CFC8B3: 3 signatures not checked due to missing keys gpg: key C2BF0BC433CFC8B3: "Ferenc Kovacs tyrael@php.net" not changed gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: unchanged: 1

And the package fails to install with this message:

==> Verifying source file signatures with gpg... php-5.6.38.tar.xz ... FAILED (unknown public key C2BF0BC433CFC8B3) ==> ERROR: One or more PGP signatures could not be verified! ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build php56.

updated to 5.6.38:

The PHP development team announces the immediate availability of PHP 5.6.38. This is a security release. One security bug have been fixed in this release. All PHP 5.6 users are encouraged to upgrade to this version.

@tkteun

as stated in the pinned comment by mickael9 you need to import the gpg key first (or configure your GPG for autoretrieve)

Please read the instructions at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Makepkg#Signature_checking

Has anyone seen issues with libnsl? I haven't been able to upgrade for quite a while because both yaourt and pacman say it doesn't exist.

aznyouth commented on 2018-07-08 11:53 (UTC)

@mickael9 thanks dude, it was indeed the path issue. I changed it and it works!

mickael9 commented on 2018-07-08 10:05 (UTC)

@ludo.silvestre @gissf1 @aznyouth I guess it happened because /bin comes before /usr/bin in your PATH? It should work now.

aznyouth commented on 2018-07-07 23:19 (UTC)

I'm having trouble to install php56. I'm getting an error in check(). Can someone help me ?

gissf1 commented on 2018-05-30 22:53 (UTC) (edited on 2018-05-30 22:54 (UTC) by gissf1)

I'm getting an error when checking sendmail in check(). Running the command manually shows that it returns "/bin/sendmail":

$ ./php -n -r 'echo ini_get("sendmail_path");'

/bin/sendmail -t -i

On my system, /bin is a symlink to /usr/bin, so its effectively the same file.

I have postfix installed and it owns /usr/bin/sendmail:

$ pacman -Qo /usr/bin/sendmail

/usr/bin/sendmail is owned by postfix 3.3.1-1

$ pacman -Qo /bin/sendmail

/usr/bin/sendmail is owned by postfix 3.3.1-1

Maybe I'm not quite understanding the purpose of the grep test.
