similar to: 5.1.6 php to 5.3, a few questions

OK, so I did an upgrade to PHP 5.3 on one of my servers. I noticed the uninstall of php also removed SquirrelMail and it won't install under PHP 5.3. Has anybody worked this out with a good RPM or repo solution? -- John Hinton 877-777-1407 ext 502 http://www.ew3d.com Comprehensive Online Solutions

I need to upgrade PHP because the latest WordPress requires one at least at 5.2.4. What are the tradeoffs of using the php53 packages provided by CentOS versus IUS? I've seen that installing the RHEL-derived php53 requires removing php first and it creates package conflicts because it doesn't provide a virtual php-common package. That suggests I should install the IUS package. Is

I am running Centos 5.8; at least uname -rmi gives me centos-release-5-8.el5.centos A CMS package is telling me that I need PHP 5.2x, however yum update says that I am fully up to date. Is there a "safe" way to upgrade PHP to 5.2x? Todd -- Ariste Software Bend, OR 97702 http://www.aristesoftware.com

Greetings, We have someone requesting the use of Wordpress 3.3.1. It requires PHP 5.2 minimum. Currently, our machine is running CentOS 5.7. What are the issues/concerns in upgrading from PHP 5.1 (the current PHP rpms) to PHP53? Much thanks, Max Pyziur pyz at brama.com

Greetings In the attempt to upgrade the technology stack on CentOS 5 from stock PHP to PHP53 I have made some progress. Much thanks to all respondents, especially Jesus. One repository that provides a complete set of builds and seems to fulfill both PHP and PHP53 requirements is the IUS one: http://iuscommunity.org/ Repos here: http://dl.iuscommunity.org/pub/ius/stable/Redhat/5/i386/repoview/

[Reposted now I've joined the list, so I hopefully don't get moderated out] Hi, I've upgraded lots of machines to 5.6 (thanks!) and there was one particular machine that I'd also like to upgrade to PHP 5.3. Unfortunately it seems I can't. On the machine I have php-mssql installed, and it appears that there is no php53-mssql. php-mssql is built from the php-extras SRPM, so

I have been reading the threads on here with great ernest about redhat making a move to throw off centos compilations. I read some stories about microsoft wanting to work closer with centos http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/05/17/microsoft_and_centos/ I have to update to centos 6 due to some needs of clients who need newer mysql and php (and installing them on centos5 was too hard for me). I

so whats the scoop on PHP53 for CentOS 5? I have a long running webserver, runs a bunch of mostly php+postgresql stuff, mostly hobby sites (clubs and local scout troops and such). has latest updates to php 5.2.10-xx but I want to install something thats insisting on php53. If I try and yum install php53, it says it conflicts with php-5.2.10 ... ok, do I remove the old PHP and install

If one stays with Centos 5.x (currently on 5.6) is the problem/enhancement/incompatibility involving PHP53 likely to be resolved by general updates and/or the introduction of Centos 5.7 ? Paul.

Hi, With CentOS php53 I get an SSL Error <?php $handle = fopen("https://maps.google.com", "r"); $contents = stream_get_contents($handle); fclose($handle); ?> will result in something like Warning: stream_get_contents(): SSL: fatal protocol error in bla.php on line 3 Some https pages do not raise this error, e.g. https://www.redhat.com is fine What is wrong? How

I have a Centos 5.6 server which is using the default php packages. These currently contain PHP 5.1.6. My main use of PHP on the server is to support an installation of WordPress. I currently had WP 3.1.2 installed, but the WP developers have announced that from WP 3.2 they will only support PHP 5. and greater. So I investigated and found that the Centos repo contains a series of php53 packages.

Not sure if there is an app like this yet. I want to keep tabs on my web applications and thought of using a 'page checker'/ I was thinking either running a sum on the directory or each file...but thinking a simple date check would be fine. The idea is web application, except the uploads area for photos, never has changes to its files except when I change it. However, if it gets

I put this page together just so I won't spam the board anymore begging for help..lol http://bobhoffman.com/vmissue.html This shows a working effort of bonded eths, bridged into a vm, and a few other things. The only missing thing is something on the host that ends up putting the VM internet connection into some kind of limbo. Whether it is hardware related, bug related, libvirt nat

Hi, I'm using repo from http://dl.iuscommunity.org/ and I want use php5.3 but I can't see module php53-mhash, where I find this module? Any repo can I use where this module I find? For at ll

Okay, Yahoo is bumming me. Only system my mail is having an issue with. All mail is accepted, but junked. I can only think it is the DKIM/Domain keys. It is apparent that the dkim-milter is not part of the centos 5.x distro nor is it part of the mirrors, as far as I can tell. So...have any of you done it with your servers for sendmail? There are some sites that claim to have rpms and I have

Hi all, I want to install php 5.3 (php53-* packages) on customer's server with Centos 5.6 but I see that there is only a few packages. Is there any repo with compatibile packages (for php 5.1 I we can usually use rpforge)? Thnaks, JJ

Hate to ask, but after reading the last few months of centos history online I am worried. And to learn the lead guy seems to have absconded with the cash and left all the hard working devs high and dry..well that is scary. They all worked so hard and who knows what will happen now. If centos falls I have no choice but to go to redhat. I am wondering if the conversion will be easy or a complete

Can anyone comment on the use of 3rd party repos for newer versions of software like php, python and mysql? Two I am aware of are puias and ius. Is one preferable to the other? Can their packages be installed in parallel to and without interfering with base packages?

Perhaps I am trying to do the impossible. centos6, spamassassin, procmail, dovecot, postfix. Postfix, by default, accepts all incoming mail to any user listed in the shadow/passwd and alias files. I cannot find a way to stop that without manually blocking each non wanted user (like nobody, apache) without killing local delivery. For most of the users listed in those files, who cares. However
