Install LAMP Stack on Debian Jessie - Packages not found

Question

I am trying to install the LAMP stack on my debian jessie server.

I tried the following to install LAMP:

apt install apache2 libapache2-mod-php7.0 php7.0 php7.0-gd php7.0-opcache php7.0-json php7.0-mbstring php7.0-xml php7.0-mcrypt php7.0-cli php7.0-curl php7.0-zip php7.0-intl php7.0-soap php7.0-tidy

However, I get:

Any suggestions why the packages cannot be found?

I appreciate your replies!

Answer 1

Search if the package exists aptitude search "libapache2-mod-php*"

Not sure about debian, but 7.0 was not available in Ubuntu 17.x. Try installing 7.2 or 7.1 instead. Make sure to apt update before you start.

Try replacing 7.0 with the results from apt search. Or you can just forego the version numbers and install.
