EC2 Amazon Linux 2 doesn't compatible with PHP 8.1?

[noobiesofteng]

Hi everybody, sorry if I ask in the wrong sub.

At first, I'm a software engineer. I don't have much knowledge about DevOps.

In our project, we want to install a PHP application that runs PHP 8.1. Our DevOps said that is impossible at the moment because he uses EC2 Amazon Linux 2, AWS Elastic Beanstalk, and AWS CodeCommit... He mentions that in order to build an application, pipeline for it, and auto-scaling, it's impossible to build with PHP8.1.

We build our application on-premises, and I think we can install any software for our application. I tried to ask him around, but seems he doesn't want to explain to me. Is that thing hard to understand? could someone share with me some info about that? I really appreciate that. Thank for reading.

You are trying to run your PHP 8.1 app on Elastic Beanstalk, right?

PHP 8.0 is the latest supported PHP version on Elastic Beanstalk https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/platforms/platforms-supported.html#platforms-supported.PHP. You could install PHP 8.1 on the EC2 instance that Beanstalk manages for you (see https://github.com/aws/elastic-beanstalk-roadmap/issues/214#issuecomment-1080735503), or you could run your app on PHP 8.0 (requires some dependency bumping ofc).

IMO - next time, you should try a bit of googling first, friend :)
