All-in-one PHP bundle for Ubuntu

I need to deploy Zend Framework app on Ubuntu. I've downloaded Ubuntu desktop, installed using apt-get apache+php+mysql, but PHP turned out to be not the latest 5.3, but 5.2.1 and even mysql extension is missing.

I understand I can get somewhere a fresh php installation, get dependent libs (like curl or libxml2) compile them one by one and then I get full-features latest PHP bundle.

But i开发者_JAVA百科s there anywhere already full PHP bundle with latest version and all libs to get ZF app running very quickly?

One of the downsides of package management is that you're at the mercy of the package maintainers. Ubuntu has opted not to update to PHP 5.3 in this version, so you'll have to either wait until 2010 for it or compile PHP yourself.

Most of the PHP extensions that arent in a default source build directly from PHP are in seperate apt packages. If you do a search for PHP5 in you package manager youll see packages like:

PHP5
PHP5-Mysql
PHP5-cli
PHP5-SQLite

etc..

Im going to assume that there are also packages specifically for php 5.3 - most likely labeled as php53-* or something similar. You may need to adda repo for this as im not sure its in the crore repos.

Anyhow you need to isntall all these packages that you need to use.

I ran into similar issues getting the latest PHP on my CentOS server. I installed Zend Server Community Edition, which sets up it's own Apache/PHP5.3 stack in /usr/local/zend. And here's a Getting Started article.

It's a full PHP bundle.

If you need other packages for Ubuntu, check the ubuntu repository for PHP5 at http://bg.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/php5/
