Whoever told you what to install is not familiar with the Red Hat policy called "backporting": www.redhat.com/advice/speaks_backport.html The latest version of php in main RHEL is php-5.1.6-27.el5_5.3.src.rpm. There is also a php53-5.3.3-1.el5_6.1.src.rpm. Those specific packages are in the 5.6 updates which are in QA testing right now, but there is php-5.1.6 and php53 in CentOS-5.5 as well. Anything else is from a 3rd party repository and may or may not work well with CentOS ... we have no control over what is or is not in 3rd party repos. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
