How to install the SQLite PDO extension on Ubuntu

just do:

sudo apt-get install php5-sqlite

Next time, you can find it via:

apt-cache search php | grep sqlite

In ubuntu 16.04 there is no php5-sqlite. You need:

sudo apt-get install php7.0-sqlite
sudo service apache2 restart

Just for clarification, I recently got into this issue, for php7.2 I had to run

sudo apt-get install php-sqlite3

which did install sqlite-3 there was no package named php-sqlite

php5-sqlite - SQLite module for php5 php-mdb2-driver-sqlite - PHP PEAR module to provide a SQLite driver for MDB2
