Upgrading php5.1 to php5.3 on CENTOS 4

April 22nd, 2010 Ivan Villareal 4 comments

I needed to update the php version of a centos 4 box, so this is what I did:

I’ve decided to go for the easy way, using the remi repo, so first I’ve Downloaded the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL)

[root@box php5.3]# wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/4/i386/epel-release-4-9.noarch.rpm
--13:08:07--  http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/4/i386/epel-release-4-9.noarch.rpm
           => `epel-release-4-9.noarch.rpm'

13:08:08 (405.60 KB/s) - `epel-release-4-9.noarch.rpm' saved [13686/13686]

Then the remi repo:

[root@box php5.3]# wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-4.rpm
--13:08:21--  http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-4.rpm

13:08:22 (32.41 KB/s) - `remi-release-4.rpm' saved [5120/5120]

Then I’ve upgraded both repos:

[root@box php5.3]# rpm -Uvh remi-release-4*.rpm epel-release-4*.rpm
warning: remi-release-4.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 00f97f56

   2:remi-release           ########################################### [100%]

and after that I downloaded the remi repo file for Yum:

[root@box php5.3]# cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
[root@box yum.repos.d]# wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/remi-enterprise.repo
--13:09:28--  http://rpms.famillecollet.com/remi-enterprise.repo
           => `remi-enterprise.repo'

After that I just told yum to upgrade php:

[root@box yum.repos.d]# yum --enable remi update php
