Benoit Mrx 2015-09-09T06:19:31+08:002015-09-09T06:19:31+08:00 Install php5 after php5-fpm if you plan to use nginx for example, because php5 needs one of either libapache2-mod-php5, libapache2-mod-php5filter, php5-cgi, or php5-fpm. Apt just picks the first package that satisfies the dependency. $ sudo apt-get install php5-fpm php5 JeffG 2011-03-05T09:00:33+08:002011-03-05T09:00:33+08:00 Yes, it is possible to install PHP5 without installing apache, in Ubuntu.
