After struggling for 2 days, My Linux Administrator suggested to install this package below.

After installing the above package my ssh2_connect undefined function vanished.

I am using
- php7
- Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
I am trying to make a ssh2_connect connection using ssh2_auth_password, the reason for this is to get files from another server
I am getting error as below
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function ssh2_connect()
$connection = ssh2_connect($connectionIp, 22, array('hostkey'=>'ssh-rsa')); if (ssh2_auth_password($connection, 'username', 'password')) { echo "Authentication Successful!\n"; } else { die('Authentication Failed...'); }
I have install as below:
sudo apt-get install libssh2-php && sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
I get the message
Package libssh2-php is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source However the following packages replace it: php-ssh2:i386 php-ssh2 E: Package 'libssh2-php' has no installation candidate
I used to use the same code for
- php5
- ubuntu 14.04
This above code worked perfectly when I am upgraded to PHP and ubuntu higher version this code doesn't work.
Thanks in advance for all you suggestion.

Todd Baur about 7 yearsDid you see in the message that you got suggested doing exactly this
"However the following packages replace it: php-ssh2:i386 php-ssh2"
? The answer hiding in plain sight :) I'm guessing thatlibssh2-php
is either the PHP 5 / Ubuntu 14 library andphp-ssh2
is the PHP 7 / Ubuntu 16 library.
