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@brama.com
I myself am running:
httpd-2.2.22 php-5.2.17 mysql-server-5.1.58
from Jason Litka's (utterramblings) repo.

No issues here.

I want to point out here that 5.2.17 is the last release of the 5.2 branch and that it is NOT being updated for security by php.net any more. There are already unpatched vulnerabilities. The 5.1.x (and php53) versions from EL5 will continue to get security updates until EL5 goes EOL.
If you have to use php-5.2.x then 5.2.17 is the one to use ... however, it is not safe.
As to the question of what is different ... I think many 3rd party packages from repoforge and EPEL will not work well with php53 ... but if you are staying inside the php53 universe, it should be OK.

What about the IUS repository listed here http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories ?
IUS PHP packages list for 5: http://dl.iuscommunity.org/pub/ius/stable/Redhat/5/x86_64/repoview/developme...
If you have virtualization capabilities and depending on your PHP extension needs, you should give a try and compare with other repositories.

We have been using php53 on all of our centos5 servers for severeal months, now. No major problem at all. Just set the timezone in /etc/php.ini.

Much thanks for all of the replies.
My sense, then, from all of the replies is that on CentoOS5, given the need for it, you upgrade to PHP53.
In running a yum update, how do you do it?
Is it just a straight # yum update php*
??
Much thanks,

php and php53 are separate packages, so you would have to remove the php packages and run yum install php53. Chances are yum may just remove php then upon installation of php53

Can someone offer their experience/advice in this regard? (remove php,
install php53, CentOS 5)
Hi. I did exactly this about a year ago under CentOS 5.6. I just had a
look at my notes:
yum install yum-utils (for package-cleanup) yum remove php php-common # These below were installed over a few days, other php packages were installed later. # I think php53-common will get installed if you install php53 anyway. yum install php53 php53-common yum install php53-mysql yum install php53-devel yum install php53-pgsql yum install php53-odbc # Not a typo. php-pear will give you the pecl package so you can install apc. yum install php-pear # I needed this for apc yum install pcre-devel
I don't remember having a problem related to php53 under CentOS 5.6, 5.7, 5.8. I can access all current, popular databases (Si- or NoSQL), all extra modules (e.g. gd) that I needed work.
Regards,
Jesus
Greetings,
I just tried this.
In the process drupal6, squirrelmail, and phpmyadmin are removed because of dependencies.
After I install php53 and other supporting php53 components, I tried installing squirrelmail, drupal6, and phpmyadmin via yum install.
However, they fail to install because of dependency issues.
Is there a solution?
Thank you.

Hi Max. You can wget Drupal from source, you don't need yum for this. Same
for squirrelmail. I have both running under php53 CentOS 5.8. I can send you my install notes from both if you want. I have never used phpmyadmin; if you want I can install it from source and I would report to you how it went.

Jesus

I would appreciate seeing your notes.
I also reviewed some past CentOS listserv archives on this same topic and see that there are the IUS repos for PHP53. With those you can yum install squirrelmail, drupal6, phpmyadmin.
(I, too, am not concerned as much with drupal6, since you can install it on a case by case base from source easily).
However, I *did* install PHP53 from the IUS repository ( along with other supporting php packages), and html-enabled email (the capability to compose html email) in squirrelmail ceased functioning.
For now, I have reverted back to stock CentOS PHP5.1. Squirrelmail's html-email plugin works again.
Hopefully, there is a way to get to PHP53 in CentOS w/o losing functionality.
Thanks for your help.
Max

Hi Max. My Drupal notes are here: http://www.geilthings.com/wiki/Drupal IUS repos: ?. I don't know what IUS means. My php53 comes with the base repository, some php53 modules are in epel. I think I only used either base or epel, they may have been under extras or plus. Anyway, only "standard" repos. squirrelmail html: Do you mean this plugin: http://squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=209 ?. It is from 2005.

Depending on your means, you could also install a virtual machine (KVM, VirtualBox,...) and make your own custom tests.
Isn'it?
