How to install/configure PHP 8 with Apache in Oracle Linux?
I couldn't find PHP 8 related repos in Oracle Linux.
What i tried so far is:
- Installed PHP 8 manually by downloading tar.
- installed httpd from repo using
sudo dnf install httpd
How to link both?
Now when I am opening a website it is showing PHP code instead of executing it.

What packages should I install?
PHP 8 is available in Remi's modular repository for EL 8 in the remi-8.0 module stream.
Before you begin you will need to be using Oracle Linux 8 and have BaseOS, AppStream and EPEL repos enabled. You probably have already done this.
Install and enable remi's repositories:
dnf install https://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-8.rpm
Reset the PHP module and then enable the remi-8.0 module stream:
dnf -y module reset php
dnf -y module enable php:remi-8.0
Now install PHP normally.
For example:
dnf install httpd php
If an older version of PHP was already installed from another module stream, then updating will upgrade it to 8.0.
dnf upgrade
