ISPConfig on Ubuntu 22.04

Ubuntu 22.04 has been released. The default PHP version on this operating system is PHP 8, which is not supported by ISPConfig 3 (yet) and we sadly can't resolve this soon. Because of this we haven't tested any ISPConfig setup with Ubuntu 22.04.

Installing or updating on Ubuntu 22.04 is not recommended, but if you do so, you can try to get the setup working by changing the default PHP version to PHP 7.4 - please note, this is untested:

Code:

add-apt-repository -y ppa:ondrej/php
apt-get -y install php7.4 php7.4-common php7.4-gd php7.4-mysql php7.4-imap php7.4-cli php7.4-cgi php7.4-curl php7.4-intl php7.4-pspell php7.4-sqlite3 php7.4-tidy php7.4-xmlrpc php7.4-xsl php7.4-zip php7.4-mbstring php7.4-soap php7.4-fpm php7.4-opcache php7.4-json php7.4-readline php7.4-xml

And then set the default PHP versions to PHP 7.4:

Code:

update-alternatives --config php

If you need to select a PHP version, select PHP 7.4. Then, run

Code:

update-alternatives --config php-cgi

If you need to select a PHP version, select PHP 7.4 as well. Lastly, run

Code:

update-alternatives --config php-fpm.sock

We hope this clarifies everything a bit! For more information on the development progress for PHP 8.X, see this issue in our GitLab: https://git.ispconfig.org/ispconfig/ispconfig3/-/issues/6328

 

And for the progress of Ubuntu 22.04 support for the autoinstaller, see https://git.ispconfig.org/ispconfig/ispconfig-autoinstaller/-/merge_requests/31

 

Just as a short update on this topic, we have made good progress in porting ISPConfig to PHP 8.1 which means that we can release ISPConfig 3.2.9 soon. The PHP 8.1 support needs a lot more testing though and I will release instructions on how to install ISPConfig on Ubuntu 22.04 with PHP 8.1 next week.
