I am using Ubuntu and I'm quite new to this OS. How can I install PHP 5.6.8?

You can use a ppa to install a newer version of PHP and keep it up to date.

Add the ppa to you system with:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php5-5.6
sudo apt-get update

Install the relevant packages on your system with:

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo apt-get install php5

Once it is finished check the version with php5 -v
