PHP is a server-side scripting language commonly used for Web development, but it is also used as a general-purpose programming language. PHP powers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/wordpress-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WordPress<\/a>, the most popular content management system used for blogging and building websites as well as may other e-commerce websites, customer relationship management software, enterprise resource planning software and much more.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<!--more-->\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-do-you-want-to-install-php-7-2-on-your-debian-9-vps\">Why do you want to install PHP 7.2 on your Debian 9 VPS?<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>PHP 7 offers much better performances than PHP 5.6 and older PHP versions. Compared with PHP 5.6, PHP 7.2 could execute as much as three times more requests. If you have installed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-wordpress-with-lamp-stack-on-ubuntu-16-04\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WordPress on your Linux VPS<\/a>, this means much lower server load, thus you should expect your website to run faster with PHP 7.2.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In addition, PHP 7.2 offers some security improvements.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>There are some <a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.php.net\/rfc\/deprecations_php_7_2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">deprecations <\/a>though that you may want to check before you consider upgrading to PHP 7.2.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-prerequisites\">Prerequisites<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Before you start with the installation of PHP 7.2 on your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/debian-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Debian VPS<\/a>, make sure that you have full root access to it. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/connect-to-your-linux-vps-via-ssh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Connect to the server via SSH<\/a> and upgrade all the system software to the latest version available. You can do this by running the following commands in the terminal:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo apt-get update \r\nsudo apt-get upgrade<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This will update the package index and will update the software currently installed on the server to the latest version.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Once your system is fully up to date, you can proceed to the next step, which is installing PHP 7.2.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-install-php-7-2-on-debian-9-vps\">Install PHP 7.2 on Debian 9 VPS<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Import the signing key and enable the PPA for PHP 7.2 by using the following commands:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">wget -q https:\/\/packages.sury.org\/php\/apt.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -\r\necho \"deb https:\/\/packages.sury.org\/php\/ stretch main\" | sudo tee \/etc\/apt\/sources.list.d\/php.list<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Once you are done with this, run the package index update once again using the command below:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo apt-get update<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In case you get an error like the one below:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">Reading package lists...

They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.\r\n<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It means there are some missing packages that you need to install first. Install the required packages by running the following command:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo apt-get install ca-certificates apt-transport-https<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Then, run the update command again.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Finally, install PHP 7.2 on your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/debian-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Debian 9 VPS<\/a> including some of the commonly used extensions using the command below:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sudo apt-get install php7.2 php7.2-cli php7.2-common php7.2-opcache php7.2-curl php7.2-mbstring php7.2-mysql php7.2-zip php7.2-xml\r\n<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>To verify the installation is completed run the following command:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">php -v<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The output should be very similar to the one below:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"># php -v\r\nPHP 7.2.9-1+0~20180901081133.4+stretch~1.gbpdaac35 (cli) (built: Sep  1 2018 08:11:34) ( NTS )\r\nCopyright (c) 1997-2018 The PHP Group\r\nZend Engine v3.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2018 Zend Technologies\r\n    with Zend OPcache v7.2.9-1+0~20180901081133.4+stretch~1.gbpdaac35, Copyright (c) 1999-2018, by Zend Technologies\r\n<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-change-customize-php-7-2-settings-on-a-debian-vps\">Change\/Customize PHP 7.2 settings on a Debian VPS<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The next thing you may want to complete is to customize the PHP 7.2 settings to meet your requirements. You can do so by editing the <code>php.ini<\/code> file.

If you are using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-set-up-apache-virtual-hosts-on-debian-9\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Apache<\/a> as a web server, you need to restart it for the new configuration to be loaded and for the changes to take effect. If you are using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-and-configure-nginx-on-debian-9\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Nginx<\/a> and PHP-FPM, you should restart the PHP-FPM service.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You can also create a sample <code>info.php<\/code> and see if the PHP files and executed on the server.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>To create the file:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">nano \/var\/www\/html\/info.php<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>and paste the following:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">&lt;?php phpinfo(); ?&gt;\r\n<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Save and close the file, then open your favorite web browser and access the file by using your server IP address in the URL followed by the name of the file.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">http:\/\/IP-ADDRESS\/info.php\r\n\r\nWith the completion of this tutorial you have learned how to install PHP 7.2 on your Debian 9 based server. \r\nFor the installation guide of PHP 7.2 on Ubuntu 16.04 please follow this tutorial on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-install-php-7-2-on-ubuntu-16-04\/\">how to install PHP 7.2 on Ubuntu 16.04<\/a>.<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"72\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/install-php-7.2-on-debian-9.jpg\" alt=\"install php 7.2 on debian 9\" class=\"wp-image-28013\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/install-php-7.2-on-debian-9.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/install-php-7.2-on-debian-9-150x54.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Our fully <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/php-hosting.html\">managed PHP Hosting<\/a> is already installed with the latest release of PHP 7.2, so you don&#8217;t have to install it by yourself.
