I’m trying to install php7.3-zip with the following commands:

sudo apt install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install php7.3-zip

But I get the following error:

Hi there @italoguerrieri,

I tested this at my end and it seems to be working as normal on Ubuntu 18.04:

  • apt search php7.3-zip

Output:

Sorting... Done
Full Text Search... Done
php7.3-zip/bionic 7.3.15-3+ubuntu18.04.1+deb.sury.org+1 amd64
  Zip module for PHP

When you run the apt update command do you get any errors?

Also, what is the exact Ubuntu version that you are currently using? You can check that with this command for example:

  • cat /etc/os-release

Regards,
Bobby

    Hi there @italoguerrieri,

    That is quite interesting, I’ve set up a fresh new Ubuntu 19.04 Droplet and tried installing PHP 7.3 and PHP 7.3 Zip and it went through as expected with the commands that you’ve shared.

    • apt search php7.3-zip

    Output:

    Sorting... Done
Full Text Search... Done
php7.3-zip/eoan,now 7.3.15-3+ubuntu19.10.1+deb.sury.org+1 amd64 [installed]
  Zip module for PHP

    Have you added any other specific repositories that could be causing the issue for you?

    Here’s a copy of my current /etc/apt/source.list file:

    ## Note, this file is written by cloud-init on first boot of an instance

## if you wish to make changes you can:
## a.) add 'apt_preserve_sources_list: true' to /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg
##     or do the same in user-data
## b.) add sources in /etc/apt/sources.list.d
## c.) make changes to template file /etc/cloud/templates/sources.list.tmpl

# deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu eoan-security multiverse

    And in my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory I only have ondrej-ubuntu-php-eoan.list.

    Can you share the contents of yours as well or make sure that there are no other repositories that could be causing the problem.

    Regards,

Hi @bobbyiliev,

this was the content of my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/:

I have substituted my sources.list file with your sources.list and this solves the problem.

Thank you very much,
Italo
