PHP 5.3.29 on Ubuntu 16.04 in order to run Joomla 1.5 locally

I'm working on a Joomla 1.5 website, which was developed with PHP 5.3. Now I'm having some incompatibilities issues with some components. My machine runs Ubuntu 16.04. The version of Joomla is 1.5. PHP versions are 5.6 and 7.0 (apache is configured to run PHP 5.6)

I can't find a way to download and install it. The apt command only shows 5.5, 5.6, 7.0 and 7.1 PHP versions.

Can anyone help me?

I have joomla 1.5 on a website running. My config shows that PHP 5.4.16 is in use. Therefore, why dont you try it with PHP 5.4 and get it from the download page:

http://php.net/releases/

If you have troubles to install it on your computer. Take a look here: https://serverfault.com/questions/353550/how-to-install-old-php-version

The link explains how you install a old php version on linux. Btw.: in the link it is only explained how to replace a PHP version. But it is possible to run different versions on a server.
