The PHP team recently announced the official GA release of PHP 8.0.0. Usually there is a 6 months pre-release phase before the GA release of PHP 8. PHP is the most used scripting language for web development, both websites and web applications. This guide will show you how to install PHP 8.0 on CentOS 8 | CentOS 7. Please note the GA release is fit for running in Production if the application already supports it.

Below is a timetable based upon PHP 7.4 release schedule which was used in PHP 8 development.

Install PHP 8.0 on CentOS 8 | CentOS 7

We’ll use REMI repository to install PHP 8 on CentOS 8 / CentOS 7 Linux system. There are two choices for the installation.

  • Install PHP 8.0 as main PHP version
  • Install PHP 8.0 alongside other PHP versions

Install PHP 8.0 as Default version (Only recommended for GA release)

If you prefer to install and have PHP 8.0 as the default version then use the commands below. This means replacing base packages from the distribution with ones provided by PHP 8.0.

CentOS 8:

sudo dnf -y install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf -y install https://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-8.rpm
sudo dnf -y install yum-utils
sudo dnf module reset php
sudo dnf module install php:remi-8.0 -y
sudo dnf install php -y
sudo dnf -y install php-{cli,fpm,mysqlnd,zip,devel,gd,mbstring,curl,xml,pear,bcmath,json}

CentOS 7:

sudo yum -y install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
sudo yum -y install https://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm
sudo yum -y install yum-utils
sudo yum-config-manager --disable 'remi-php*'
sudo yum-config-manager --enable remi-php80
sudo yum -y install php php-{cli,fpm,mysqlnd,zip,devel,gd,mbstring,curl,xml,pear,bcmath,json}

To install any additional PHP package use command syntax:

sudo yum install php-xxx

Check PHP version:

$ php --version
PHP 8.0.0 (cli) (built: Nov 24 2020 17:04:03) ( NTS gcc x86_64 )
Copyright (c) The PHP Group
Zend Engine v4.0.0-dev, Copyright (c) Zend Technologies
    with Zend OPcache v8.0.0, Copyright (c), by Zend Technologies

Install PHP 8.0 alongside other PHP versions (Recommended for Alpha releases)

As this is an early release version not to be used in Production it will make sense to run PHP 8 with other PHP versions simultaneously.

Install PHP 8.0 on CentOS 8:

sudo dnf -y install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf -y install https://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-8.rpm
sudo dnf -y install yum-utils
sudo dnf module reset php
sudo dnf install php80

Accept installation by pressing the y key in your keyboard:
