Hi,
I'm looking for a php5 rpm which I can install in parallel with php4. Therefore, the centosplus rpm is (AFAIK) not usable for me as it replaces php4.
Does centos provide an php5 rpm which does not touch my php4? Is there a matching srpm on web?
Sorry, if this question is a FAQ. Thanks for your help :)

Correct.

No. The general population has basically demanded php5, or php5 but not both. I am not aware of any builds out there which allow both php4 and php5 to peacefully coexist.
Thanks for your answer.
I modified the CentOS+ RPM/spec file so that you can install PHP5 in parallel to PHP4 (shared PHP pear with PHP4). Additionally, I added a fcgi package which contains a FastCGI enabled PHP binary.
No extensive testing so far but the installation of Mediawiki 1.9 went smoothly.
You will probably want to disable either /etc/httpd/conf.d/php5.conf or /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf because using both modules in parallel is AFAIK not possible.
Just in case that someone is interested: http://www.felix-schwarz.name/files/opensource/php-fcgi/5.1.6-3el4s1.5/

Presently, does CentOS using FastCGI?

Will apache still call out php module when php is executed?
Thanks
