I found almost the same problem with xml after linux update (and PHP 7.0 -> 7.1 with it).

The solution for me was pretty simple:

sudo apt install php7.1-xml

In my case some php packages were not upgraded, so I simply had to perform a dist-upgrade:

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

I experienced the same errors. The reportedly missing files were present, the file permissions looked ok to me, and PHP was executed using the correct user and group.

For me it helped, to remove all PHP packages and do a fresh start.

  1. The following command should remove all PHP packages on a Debian/Ubuntu systems (including the PHP config - make a backup before):

    sudo aptitude purge `dpkg -l | grep php| awk '{print $2}' |tr "\n" " "`

    Source: https://askubuntu.com/a/187278

  2. Check if PHP was removed:

    php -v

    This should return something like "command not found: php".

  3. Then, install PHP again, e.g.:

    sudo apt-get install php7.1 php7.1-xml php7.1-fpm php7.1-json

Safe solution is to reinstall all php7 related packages.

You can do it by simply entering this command to console:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall `dpkg -l | grep 'ii  php7' | awk '{ printf($2" "); next}'`

This solution will keep your configuration unchanged
