Hi @pritam97, thank you for the question. Can I ask what pool you use in your pipeline? Do you use an MS hosted or self-hosted agent?

For example, for ubuntu-2204 the latest preinstalled version of PHP is 8.1.2: https://github.com/actions/runner-images/blob/main/images/ubuntu/Ubuntu2204-Readme.md#php-tools

In any case, I think you can install the version of PHP that you need in an earlier step in your pipeline and then use the same set of update-alternatives commands to set up symlinks

I am using microsoft hosted agent, but i want use php 8.2 or 8.3 above yaml is not working

@pritam97 I think you can use a command from your distribution's package manager that will download the needed version of php just before this line:

azure-pipelines-yaml/templates/php.yml

Line 17 in d0943c1

sudo update-alternatives --set php /usr/bin/php$(phpVersion)

Or you can switch to a pool such as ubuntu-2004, which has php 8.2 and 8.3 preinstalled: https://github.com/actions/runner-images/blob/main/images/ubuntu/Ubuntu2004-Readme.md#php-tools
