Package zabbix-apache-conf is not available upgrading from 4.0 to 5.0 on Ubuntu 16.04

I am stuck in my frontend with



My php is

PHP 7.3.18-1+ubuntu16.04.1+deb.sury.org+1 (cli) (built: May 14 2020 10:34:21) ( NTS )
Copyright (c) 1997-2018 The PHP Group

I have read documentation about installing on xenial (https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...tend_on_debian).
Obviously I am missing something -- having the right php-version (and all the necessary modules installed) is not sufficient to install the frontend?
How could I do this?

When trying to install the web frontend with apt-get install zabbix-apache-conf I get:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package zabbix-apache-conf 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

E: Package 'zabbix-apache-conf' has no installation candidate

I (think I) followed installation instructions so /etc/apt/sources.list.d/zabbix.list contains

deb http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/5.0/ubuntu xenial main
deb-src http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/5.0/ubuntu xenial main

and the rest of the installation worked, I did database upgrades too. Server version shows

zabbix_server (Zabbix) 5.0.1

Hi,

same problem, same screen error.

Problem is that zabbix-frontend-php and zabbix-apache-conf stay on old version. When i try:

sudo apt-get install --only-upgrade zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-frontend-php zabbix-agent

got:

zabbix-agent is already the newest version (1:5.0.1-1+xenial).
zabbix-server-mysql is already the newest version (1:5.0.1-1+xenial).
zabbix-frontend-php is already the newest version (1:4.4.9-1+xenial).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 11 not upgraded.

what i do:

sudo service zabbix-server stop
sudo rm -Rf /etc/apt/sources.list.d/zabbix.list
dpkg --purge zabbix-release

wget https://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/5.0/u...xenial_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i zabbix-release_5.0-1+xenial_all.deb
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install --only-upgrade zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-frontend-php zabbix-agent
sudo apt-get install -y zabbix-apache-conf

and now i got:
zabbix-apache-conf is already the newest version (1:4.4.9-1+xenial).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 11 not upgraded.

Any suggestions?

The zabbix-frontend-php and zabbix-apache-conf packages for 16.04(Xenial) do not exist.

https://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/5.0/ubuntu/pool/main/z/zabbix/

Zabbix 5.0 requires PHP 7.2 or later. What version of PHP are you using?
If you use a package other than Xenial standard, you may be able to prepare PHP 7.2 or later environment.
However, the package provided for Xenial is zabbix-frontend-php-deprecated instead of zabbix-frontend-php. Since there is no zabbix-apache-conf package, I think that it is necessary to place a unique configuration file according to the Apache and PHP environment.
