installing php 7 on 14.04 - Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:ondrej/php-7.0'

[Anonymous]

Hi all,
I'm trying to install php 7 on 14.04, but can't add ppa.

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php-7.0
Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:ondrej/php-7.0'.
Please check that the PPA name or format is correct.

Please advise.

try:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php7.0

I would advise upgrading to 18.04 which is the latest LTS, then just:

sudo apt install php
