I'm happily running my LAMP stack with php 7.0 except that I require uploadprogress.so and attempts to install it with PECL result in compile errors.

What do I need to tell Ubuntu 14.04 to use the correct libraries etc to compile uploadprogress.so?

Depends on how you installed PHP 7.0:

  • From ppa:ondrej/php - just do apt-get install php-uploadprogress

  • From sources - you need to build the extension from current git tree:

    git clone git@git.php.net:/pecl/php/uploadprogress.git
phpize # just make sure the default phpize belongs to PHP 7.0
./configure
make
sudo make install

php-uploadprogress is not available by default on Ubuntu 16.

sudo apt-get install php-uploadprogress
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package php-uploadprogress is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source

E: Package 'php-uploadprogress' has no installation candidate

What is the best way of installing so that any updates will be installed in the future?

I found a possible solution... https://www.drupal.org/node/2718253

You can also try...

With this PPA the installation of the upload progressbar for PHP 7 should work also.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php

Followed up by this command

sudo apt-get update

Then the uploadprogress for PHP7 can be installed via:

sudo apt-get install php-uploadprogress

  • If You find that command add-apt-repository doesn't exist then install it with: $ sudo apt-get install software-properties-common python-software-properties – sobi3ch Nov 11 '16 at 12:50
