How to Install PHP 7.4 on CentOS 8
By default PHP that is available on CentOS 8 is version 7.2, while Security Support from PHP 7.2 will soon end its support period on 30 November 2020. In some cases too, PHP applications that want to run on CentOS 8 require the latest version of PHP.

3.Install PHP 7.4
Install PHP 7.4.
1 | dnf install php php-cli php-common |
Test the results of the installation by checking the PHP version.

4.PHP with Apache
When installing PHP earlier also installed the Apache web server (HTTPD).
Enable and start the Apache service.
1 2 3 | systemctl enable httpd systemctl start httpd systemctl status httpd |
Also check the php-fpm service status, because CentOS 8 no longer uses the Apache module. Install PHP had also already installed PHP-FPM.
1 2 | systemctl enable php-fpm systemctl status php-fpm |
Create info.php file to test Apache whether it can run PHP scripts.
1 2 | cd /var/www/html echo "<?php phpinfo(); ?>" > info.php |
Browse http://SERVER-IP/info.php.
