Install PHP5 on Ubuntu 18.04

I have an old PHP tool running which is not easily adaptable to PHP7. So I have to run PHP5 on my server.



How can I install PHP5 on Ubuntu Bionic Beaver?

          You can install PHP5.6 from a PPA:



          sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ondrej/php
          sudo apt update
          sudo apt install php5.6

            You may want to consider running your PHP 5 tool in a container, e.g. Docker. PHP 5 is nearing End-of-life and if you use PHP 7 on the same machine you may run in to conflicts.



            There are several official Docker images available for PHP 5: https://hub.docker.com/_/php/

            • Is this any more secure than just install PHP 5? I don't need PHP 7 on that mashine
