similar to: Centos 5.6 Implications of PGP53 ?

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.

Hello fellow CentOS users, until now I was using CentOS 5.5 with php 5.3 through this file: # grep -v ^# /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Testing.repo [c5-testing] name=CentOS-5 Testing baseurl=http://dev.centos.org/centos/$releasever/testing/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://dev.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-testing includepkgs=php* Today I have updated to CentOS 5.6 by running

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

Curious I do not see the php53 in the yum centos 5 repositories. Has this package been excluded? http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/php53-5.3. 3-1.el5_6.1.src.rpm http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Client/en/os/SRPMS/php53-5.3. 3-1.el5_6.1.src.rpm -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -

More PHP fun! I can see in the spec files that php-mcrypt support was removed by Redhat. I tried to find out why but I don't have sufficient access to redhat bugzilla. I am wondering if it is actually necessary as I have also run across a post or two that indicates applications that rely on mcrypt still work with the new php53. Perhaps mcrypt was superceded by another module or PHP core

Hi List, In case any of you are wondering when RHEL5.6 will be out our satellite server has just pulled down a copy (with bind97 and php53 :) so I'd expect an official announcement fairly soon.

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

Hi, Could someone tell me how I'd go about compiling php with mcrypt support from src.rpm? ie. configure -with-mcrypt[=DIR] Is it just a matter of calling rpmbuild --rebuild src.rpm --with=mcrypt ? Cheers, MaZe.

Hello list! I have been instructed to install very specific version numbers of httpd and php on the company web servers.

[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

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

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

I see that there are a plethora of php extensions available as rpms, from the centos repositories, but not the php-mcrypt extension. I'm trying to stick to an rpm-only system and haven't found one that provides this, yet, for my 4.4 system. Is there any plan to add this to the repository in the near future (if at all)? Does anyone know where I can get it, otherwise? I see there is one for

Hi, I need this to install for a new ecommerce store I want to test out: mcrypt for extension=php_mcrypt.dll in php.ini Do you know where I can get this rpm?

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/

Hello list I'm managing a web server with centos-release-5-9.el5.centos.1. I have php-5.1.6-40.el5_9 right now and I'd like to update it to php53. I wander if its easy or complicated. If somebody have any instructions I'd be very glad! Thank you in advance. Nikos -- Untitled Document ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *?????? ????? - Gatsis
