Installing PHP5.3 for Ubuntu 20.4/22.4 for LAMP

Question

I'm trying to install PHP5.3 on an Ubuntu server, I've tried the following:

Installing PHP 5.3 in Ubuntu 14.04 (Make has errors and then stops apache server)
https://gist.github.com/szihaj/b1c2e6e14eb4dd939f57e0eb46a47ab1 (ppa not compatible with this version of Ubuntu I get the following error https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Rz2zo0m88rrxqrfn)

How can I achieve this?

Given the age of PHP 5.3, it is unlikely that you’ll find a reliable repository offering a direct install for 22.04 or newer. That said, Docker is made for situations like this and would be the most reliable, repeatable, and responsible way to have an EOL version of PHP on a current release of Ubuntu — matigo, Mar 05 '24 at 14:26
