I have ubuntu 14.04 LTS(32bit). I want to install php5.5. I installed apache server and I see default apache server index page on localhost correctly.
But, when I try to install php5 with apt-get install php5, I get error for unmet dependencies.
Also I try : apt-get install lamp-server^ But I get this error:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
php5-json : Depends: phpapi-20121212+lfs
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Any idea?
Try this
sudo apt-get install tasksel
After installation invoke taskel from terminal
sudo tasksel install lamp-server
follow this link
http://www.unixmen.com/install-lamp-with-1-command-in-ubuntu-1010-maverick-meerkat/
Try this on your terminal. It's a great lamp stack setup wizard provided by tasksel.
sudo apt-get install taskel //then follow on screen instructions to install lamp stack
you can also use XAMPP for apache server and php.
you can download XAMPP from this site https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html and after downloading right click on the downloaded file and then click on the properties and then click on the tab called permissions then tick on Allow executing file as a program" then open terminal navigate to the path where you have downloaded xampp then write the following command
sudo ./filename_which_you_have_downloaded thats it now install xampp through the window which has popped up
