I have been stuck on some relatively old server iich runs php 5.6 and ubuntu 18.04.
Problem is that I can not install apcu or Redis modules to do some caching. I would need them desperately to get time to upgrade the system to more modern version. Server is running latest Hestia
When I try to install acpu:
sudo apt install php-apcu

php-apcu is already the newest version (5.1.9+4.0.11-1build1).
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
libicu64 linux-image-4.15.0-62-generic linux-modules-4.15.0-60-generic
linux-modules-4.15.0-62-generic linux-modules-extra-4.15.0-62-generic php7.3-imap php7.3-ldap
Use ‘sudo apt autoremove’ to remove them.

bcmath
bz2
calendar
so no module loaded. php.ini says acpu.ini is loaded
I have installed Redis for more modern Hestia CP panel which runs also nginx phpfpm earlier and remeber to have had also then some problems but I have unfortunately forgotten where notes how I resolved it and bash history don’t go so deep on that server
So apt need possibly a new source? Or could some dependencies also help with this issue?
Oops, I have been pretty sick constantly for nearly a year and this deadline (too) has slipped my mind. Next problem will be updating live ubuntu bionic 18.04 LTS to at least 20.04 LTS. Does anyone have useful links to do it properly? I can make a full server back up but wan’t to minimize downtime because the server has web server which serves live sites, though only for about thousand visitors a day.
I must Thank You all the devs and contributors for this great Cpanel and all the work you have made. I must convince my Uncle Scrooge Boss again to give you a donation when I get fysically back to workplace (just kidding, no fysical force needed).

Invalid package information
After updating your package information, the essential package
‘ubuntu-minimal’ could not be located. This may be because you have
no official mirrors listed in your software sources, or because of
excessive load on the mirror you are using. See /etc/apt/sources.list
for the current list of configured software sources.
In the case of an overloaded mirror, you may want to try the upgrade
again later.
