Install problem: php-xml

[V96GLF]

I'm doing a new install on Raspbian Bullseye, attempting to follow the Wiki install instructions for Linux.

For PHP, the recommended install seemed to work fine:

sudo apt-get install php7.3 php7.3-curl php7.3-mysql php7.3-mbstring php7.3-xml php7.3-openssl

All seems well until I get to the "Update Country Files" menu option, at which point I get:

You must install php-xml for this to work.

I also tried apt-get install php-xml, which I think might have installed a later version of php-xml, but I get the same error. For info:

php-xml is already the newest version (2:8.1+92+0~20220117.43+debian11~1.gbpe0d14e).

I'm stuck now. Any suggestions?

If you run php -m on the command line is xml listed?

No, it isn't. I guess that's a good clue ;-)

Solved.

I installed PHP 7.4 (rather than 7.3), and the problem went away.
