I used Remi repo and PHP7 seems to work perfect. This is what I did (if someone sees something bad, just say because I am not 100% sure if it is perfect, but here it works).
yum install scl-utils
yum install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
yum install http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm
yum install php70
yum install php70-php-mysqlnd
yum install php70-php-curl
yum install php70-php-simplexml
yum install php70-php-devel php70-php-gd php70-php-json php70-php-mcrypt php70-php-mbstring php70-php-opcache php70-php-pear php70-php-pecl-apcu php70-php-pecl-geoip php70-php-pecl-imagick php70-php-pecl-json-post php70-php-pecl-memcache php70-php-pecl-xmldiff php70-php-pecl-zip php70-php-pspell php70-php-soap php70-php-tidy php70-php-xml php70-php-xmlrpc
With this you have PHP7 and all important extensions running next to the other PHP versions!
If anyone sees room for improvement, then I am very interested. Would be good information on this topic.
And I know it would be better to not use third party repos, but I could not find PHP7 for CentOS 7.2 then. Is it correct you only can get this with a third party (Remi) repo?
Also I hope it wasn’t a bad choice to choose this repo.
Had a hard time installing the php 5.6.x version on VirtualMIN
module php5.x-mysql missing… when loading your WordPress?? 😉
# yum install scl-utils
# yum -y update
# yum -y install php56-php-mysql
Installation done!
Now test your wordpress, set VirtualMIN domain to use PHP version 5.6.x!
NOTE: Must “Re-Check Configuration” after adding a new php version into VirtualMIN
> VirtualMIN > System Settings > Re-Check Configuration
The following PHP versions are available : 5.4.16 (/bin/php-cgi), 5.5.38 (/bin/php55-cgi), 5.6.30 (/bin/php56-cgi), 7.0.15 (/bin/php70-cgi)
Et voilà !
