I'm wondering if you're installing Trusty so you PHP-5.5 access.

If you can tolerate PHP-5.6 (as PHP-5.5 is highly hackable), you might
try this.

1) Create an Ubuntu Zesty based container

2) Inside your container...

LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php </dev/null
LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/apache2 </dev/null

add-apt-repository ppa:pdoes/dovecot </dev/null

apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 0xF1656F24C74CD1D8
echo "deb [arch=amd64,i386] http://links.davidfavor.com/wf/click?upn=4BgcJu7FL8IQ-2FijfDDugFRx5ACiF6s6WYIwCCtBrwnhH8gbfquuUjggr9BUcUTuXDN2ceuQjaLxU3o5O4YtPepUuq-2FjhkGe1ANCYW5JdWKE-3D_dR-2FDpsqbqS0pG-2FvtYnlwlYDAXhLtx9yTSf3jZyR4W4FJm5kgQqvrKRmmJ9iEttydavqt4SiXDUgfyrnm4wEgKN8egXBCjpxTGm88TtwkVvrYVSXjJqIcXi5n8AD-2B85Ku0FTqYon9-2BAkf7POzh05vHVJDaf18V8t9YubTqXWxAeaA8m0n4IybGn4IB4Zsm2mY3Hli40FF-2F9MY51vykP4xHZDjUN7M5mVaZiXuhGmaDvI7kvcZETH363AKi7lhe97u $(lsb_release -sc) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mariadb.list

apt-get update

apt-cache policy apache2 php7.1 mariadb-server dovecot-core openssl

apt-get install mariadb-server mariadb-client libmysqlclient-dev libapache2-mod-php5.6

a2enmod mpm_prefork ssl http2 expires headers include rewrite

service apache2 restart

3) At this point, you can install Apache-2.4.27 + HTTP2 + PHP which can switch between
    versions 5.6 + 7.0 + 7.1 which give you a solid starting point of latest MariaDB
    with whatever version of PHP you require.

Just a thought.
