my test report. current dev version: Precise Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with php 5.3.10 xenial version: Daliy build xenial-desktop-amd64.iso 05-Feb-2016 08:06 1.4G
fresh install on VirtualBox 5.0.14 r105127 locale used: french default parameters hanged on automatic first reboot after system install.... restarted the Virtual Machine, then the system has boot correctly. installed Guest Additions provided by virtualbox # add-apt-repository ppa:php-ubuntu/php7.0 # apt-get update # apt-get upgrade # apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client # apt-get install php-cli php # apt-get install php-mysql php-mcrypt php-gd optional: # apt-get install php-tidy I waste a lot of time for reasons that do not involve php. mainly 2 points : 1) Porting mysql ini file: both table_cache and innodb_data_file_path parameter when defined prevent the MySQL server from starting!!!! - table_cache has been replaced by table_open_cache. - didn't found for innodb_data_file_path and commented it out! Half a day lost for this! I hope this post will help other people... 2) network interface names: eth0 is no more the name for the first interface. had to recode product licensing php code to deal with that. php7 itself: no much to say php7 is working like a charm! - no pbs with phpMyAdmin-4.5.4.1 - my 105000+ php code lines application(*) just works fine as expected! I cannot say anything about speed as I have no reference for a VM. I hope my full week-end day of php7 testing will help to have it by default in xenial!
