I do not do PHP either, but I have been forced to learn little bits
along the way to fix things.  From those error messages, I think you
might be having a problem with the PHP version you are running.  I
think it is trying to report that you are running too early a version
of PHP, but you have not configured an email address in the Apache
config file, so it then has a problem trying to send a error email.

Try running this command from a prompt:

php -r 'echo PHP_MAJOR_VERSION, ".", PHP_MINOR_VERSION, "\n";'

to see what version of PHP is installed.  On Ubuntu 18.04, I get
"7.2".
