Is there a "safe" way to upgrade PHP to 5.2x?
rpm -q --all | grep php
save the list of php packages
stop httpd
save /etc/php.ini, even if is renamed by rpm, but better have another copy, just in case
remove all php packages
yum install php53
and then install the php53 packages you previously had
apply the customizations of /etc/php.ini including the correct timezone (some php applications may complain if it is not set)
start httpd
I did this on 20+ servers when php53 was available. No problem at all.

The basic questions of design, material and shielding, in combining a nuclear reactor with a home boiler and cooling unit, no longer are problems... The system would heat and cool a home, provide unlimited household hot water, and melt the snow from sidewalks and driveways. All that could be done for six years on a single charge of fissionable material costing about $300. --Robert Ferry, U.S. Institute of Boiler and Radiator Manufacturers, 1955 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://www.enigmail.net/

I assume that after saving the php.ini I would
yum remove php
yum install php53
However, I am not sure what you mean by
and then install the php53 packages you previously had
I have been running PHP as it came with Centos 5.
Another question has to do with the GD library. How can I tell if it is installed *or* is it automatically part of php35?
Oh yes...if there is a problem with php35, are there any problems in reinstalling php 5.1?
Many thanks
