Example we use Ubuntu 22.04, and we want to build PHP 7.4
Step 1: download source code:
git clone https://github.com/php/php-src.git --depth 1 --branch php-7.4.8
result:
root@tutorialspots ~ # git clone https://github.com/php/php-src.git --depth 1 --branch php-7.4.8 Cloning into 'php-src'... remote: Enumerating objects: 19090, done. remote: Counting objects: 100% (19090/19090), done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (16962/16962), done. remote: Total 19090 (delta 2679), reused 13701 (delta 1956), pack-reused 0 Receiving objects: 100% (19090/19090), 17.77 MiB | 11.15 MiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (2679/2679), done. Note: switching to 'da4a40646aa897a5ba49edd2d64121ba34f1aeb9'. You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch. If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example: git switch -c <new-branch-name> Or undo this operation with: git switch - Turn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false
Step 2: change dir to php-src
cd php-src
Step 3: install requirements:
apt install build-essential autoconf automake libtool apt install libbison-dev apt install re2c apt install libxml2-dev apt install libsqlite3-dev apt install zlib1g-dev
Step 4: Build
./buildconf --force ./configure --with-mysqli make make install
