Before installing PHP 5.6, we need to make sure that our system has installed the Apache web server, MySQL database and Additional dependencies required by PHP. We can use the following command to check whether these services are available:

sudo service apache2 status
sudo service mysql status
sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5

If one or more services are not started or installed in the above command, you must install or start them before continuing with the installation.

After adding the PPA, we need to update the package list to ensure we get the latest version of all software packages. Update the package list using the following command:

sudo apt-get update

Step 4: Install PHP 5.6
