  <p>I'm simply not getting how to install it on my production server. I have Craft working beautifully locally...but getting it to my server is a whole other matter. </p>
  
  <p>So I have ssh'd into my VPS, then run 'wget '<a href="https://craftcms.com/latest-v3.zip" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://craftcms.com/latest-v3.zip</a>'' and unzipped it to try and get it running as just a barebones install. So now I'm going through the install instructions, and am running into an error when running the './craft setup/security-key' step:</p>
  
  <pre><code>PHP Warning:  Module 'Phar' already loaded in Unknown on line 0
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Craft requires PHP 7.0 or later.</p>
  
  <p>I created a phpinfo file and it's returning PHP Version 7.0.30.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas why I'm getting this error?</p>

  I'm going on 5 days of banging my head on my desk here.
  
  I'm simply not getting how to install it on my production server. I have Craft working beautifully locally...but getting it to my server is a whole other matter.
  
  So I have ssh'd into my VPS, then run 'wget '<https://craftcms.com/latest-v3.zip>'' and unzipped it to try and get it running as just a barebones install. So now I'm going through the install instructions, and am running into an error when running the './craft setup/security-key' step:
  
  ```
  PHP Warning:  Module 'Phar' already loaded in Unknown on line 0
  
  ```
  
  Craft requires PHP 7.0 or later.
  
  I created a phpinfo file and it's returning PHP Version 7.0.30.
  
  Any ideas why I'm getting this error?
  
  Thanks in advance.
