update php on CentOS

[mister_v]

Hi,

I want to update my php-version on CentOS Linux.
But when I do the update command I says that there are no updates

Code: Select all

# yum update php
Could not find update match for php
No Packages marked for Update/Obsoletion

But I only have version php 5.1.6,
And I known that there are newer version out there.

Code: Select all

# php -v
PHP 5.1.6 (cli) (built: Jul 31 2008 00:08:07) 
Copyright (c) 1997-2006 The PHP Group

You can find a complete explanation here:

In short:
You have to install EPEL:

Code: Select all

wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uvh epel-release-5*.rpm

Then set the Remi repository:

Code: Select all

cd /etc/yum.repos.d
wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/fedora/remi.repo

When you have done that you can do the update:
As the remi dipository isn't enabled by default, you have to enable it.

Code: Select all

yum --enablerepo remi update php
yum --enablerepo remi update mysql
