I recently downgraded one of my laptop from 14.04 to 12.04. Reason for downgrading operating system is speed only. 12.04 seems 10x time faster then my experience with 14.04 on my low configuration laptop. As usual I install LAMP stack using tasksel
command:
$ sudo apt-get install tasksel
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo tasksel install lamp-server
However, this installed PHP version 5.3.10. I google to update php version and followed many suggestions including sudo apt-get update
, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
and also installing latest PPA as well.
Also fllowed this answer: Php upgrade from 5.3 to php 5.6 on Ubuntu 12.04
Nothing worked so far and I am here for seeking some help.
