Cannot update to php 5 to 7 in linux mint? - nginx

I just want to update PHP 5 to PHP 7 and I got below error after adding this line "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php"
Adding PPAs is not supported
I am using Linux mint 17 and my web server is Nginx. How to fix this? Is there any alternative

To use the add-apt-repository you need to install software-properties-common or python-software-properties , just run the following command:
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common python-software-properties
Then run:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
Alternative methode:
You can add dotdeb repository to your sources.list then install PHP 7

Installing R devtools package on WSL

The problem:
I'm trying to install the devtools package for R. I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on WSL, the Windows Subsystem for Linux.
I'm able to install some packages just fine with a simple call to install.packages() from within R on WSL. However, other packages seem to give me trouble.
None of the following methods I've tried seem to work:
* I've tried installing the package with install.packages().
* I've tried installing from source into /usr/local/lib/R/site-library.
* I've tried installing from source into a personal library.
Error message:
I was recieving an error message like that discussed here, but I was unable to fix the problem by editing unpackPkgZip because it didn't exist.
The Question:
How can I install devtools on WSL?
Solution:
I was able to fix the problem by starting over. I uninstalled Ubuntu and then reinstalled it. With a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04 I followed these instructions. There are other online tutorials which probably work just fine, but I followed this one. You can ignore the bit about installing an rstudio server and the fsl package if you wish.
# Install R on WSL
sudo apt-get update -qq -y
sudo apt-get install -y wget git
OS_DISTRIBUTION=$(lsb_release -cs)
wget -O- http://neuro.debian.net/lists/${OS_DISTRIBUTION}.us-nh.full | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/neurodebian.sources.list
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 0xA5D32F012649A5A9
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libopenblas-base r-base
sudo apt-get update -qq -y
sudo apt-get install -y libgit2-dev
sudo apt-get install -y libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev
sudo apt-get install -y zlib1g-dev libssh2-1-dev libpq-dev libxml2-dev
#sudo apt-get install -y libhdf5 # This didn't work.
Now try installing devtools in R.
# Install devtools
install.packages("devtools", repos = "https://cran.rstudio.com/")
Permission error:
If you encounter a permission error like the following...
Warning in install.packages("edgeR") :'lib = "/usr/local/lib/R/site-library"' is not writable Would you like to use a personal library instead? (y/n)
...you need to provide the user with write access to the directory where R packages are installed (see here). Try changing the group ownership of this directory:
# Who has ownership of /usr/local/lib/R/site-library/?
ls -l /usr/local/lib/R/
# drwxrwsr-x 1 root staff 512 Jul 18 21:38 site-library
# Change ownership.
sudo chgrp twesleyb /usr/local/lib/R/site-library/
ls -l /usr/local/lib/R/
#drwxrwxr-x 1 root twesleyb 512 Jul 18 21:38 site-library
# In this case I have write access, but in case you need to add it, try:
# $ sudo chmod g+w /usr/local/lib/R/site-library
You should now be able to install.packages("package").
I'm a linux novice, but I think this is an okay thing to do.
Update:
You can also try following duckmayr's instructions.

How to upgrade R version on WSL?

I'm running Ubuntu in Windows Subsystem for Linux, and apt-get update isn't finding the newest versions of r-base. On Ubuntu 16.04, the newest R version it gets is 3.2.3. How do I upgrade to newer versions of R?
It turns out that the version of r-base in the default Ubuntu repository is behind the newest version of r-base from CRAN.
The solution is to add R-CRAN to /etc/apt/sources.list, using the instructions here: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu xenial-cran35/" >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys E298A3A825C0D65DFD57CBB651716619E084DAB9
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --only-upgrade r-base # This upgrades r-base if it's already installed; otherwise it doesn't install it
As #DirkEddelbuettel said in his comments, this README has helpful information for how you can update your R version in a Windows subsystem for Linux (WSL) setting. For me, I updated from R 3.4 to R 4.0 on Ubuntu 18.04.
I am running bionic (I used lsb_release -a to find out), and I wanted R 4.0 so I picked the appropriate deb line (for me: deb https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu bionic-cran40/) to add to my /etc/apt/sources.list file (had to use sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list to add this line to the end). Then I ran sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get install r-base. Now I have 4.0.2, the newest version. Just pick the particular Ubuntu/R combo that you want based on the options from the README. I hope this can help someone.

How to install Swoole in ubuntu

Simply my Question is How to Install Swoole in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
I have tried
sudo pecl install swoole
am getting handfull of errors, already posted here
Is there any alternate way to install the same...
Swoole Installation alternate ways
1.Install from source
sudo apt-get install php7-dev
git clone https://github.com/swoole/swoole-src.git
cd swoole-src
phpize
./configure
make && make install
2.Example for static compile
git clone -b PHP-7.2 --depth 1 https://github.com/php/php-src.git
cd php-src/
git clone -b master --depth 1 https://github.com/swoole/swoole-src.git ext/swoole
./buildconf --force
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php7 --disable-all --enable-cli --disable-cgi --disable-fpm --disable-phpdbg --enable-bcmath --enable-hash --enable-json --enable-mbstring --enable-mbregex --enable-mbregex-backtrack --enable-sockets --enable-pdo --with-sodium --with-password-argon2 --with-sqlite3 --with-pdo-sqlite --with-pcre-regex --with-zlib --with-openssl-dir --enable-swoole-static --enable-openssl --with-swoole
time make -j `cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep processor | wc -l`
sudo make install
Some Linux distributions do not include the PHP-XML extension in their PHP package and will need to be enabled before using PECL. You can install using apt-get install php-xml and you may need to install PHPize to compile Swoole, you can install it using apt-get install php7.*-dev or whatever PHP version you are using.
Then try again with sudo pecl install swoole
For those who installed PHP from ondrej/php PPA (quite common way to install PHP in Ubuntu) it's quite easy now:
sudo apt install php-swoole
Or for specific version:
sudo apt install php7.4-swoole
Tip. This is how you usually install ondrej/php PPA:
sudo apt install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
Install swoole for version specific should work for example if you have php 7.3 use
sudo apt install php7.3-swoole
replace the version to your local php env

How to upgrade openresty with or without downtime

All,
I have few servers that have openresty installed and the version running on it is nginx version: openresty/1.9.7.2
How can i upgrade it to 1.11.5.2.
I have seen the documentation but things are not getting clear. Can someone please provide the detailed steps of the same.
This is a pretty late reply, but I just performed an upgrade from OpenResty 1.13.6.2 to 1.15.8.2. I'm running OpenResty in AWS/EC2 on Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS. I just followed the Ubuntu guide to install at OpenResty
I did this on a backup instance to make sure everything worked, then applied the upgrade to my Live instance. All of my configs were intact and unchanged.
# install some prerequisites needed by adding GPG public keys (could be removed later)
sudo apt-get -y install --no-install-recommends wget gnupg ca-certificates
# import our GPG key:
wget -O - https://openresty.org/package/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
# for installing the add-apt-repository
sudo apt-get -y install --no-install-recommends software-properties-common
# add the our official APT repository:
sudo add-apt-repository -y "deb http://openresty.org/package/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) main"
# to update the APT index:
sudo apt-get update
# Then you can install openresty:
sudo apt-get -y install openresty
# check the new version:
openresty -v
# restart openresty
sudo service openresty restart

Nginx update on ubuntu fails

I am not nginx expert and having problems in configuring it.
Examples I found on web are slightly different so I wanted to update nginx 1.05 to 1.4.1 to see if it helps.
I have found instructions to install nginx from PPA as
apt-get install python-software-properties
add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/stable
apt-get update
apt-get install nginx
It seems as is it has installed but nginx -v is still telling me I have 1.0.5
What I missed?
Using ubuntu 11.10
Thanks
NGINX maintains is own apt repository which means you don't need to use the PPA.
Firstly remove the added ppa:
sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:nginx/stable
Then, if you're not running anything critical through nginx I would suggest running apt-get remove --purge nginx to completely remove nginx.
To use NGINX's repository add the following to `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/nginx.list':
deb http://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu/ oneiric nginx
deb-src http://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu/ oneiric nginx
Then run apt-get update. Then reinstall using apt-get install nginx.
Hope that works.
