The php versions in CentOS-5 and CentOS-6 are different. You don't say what version you are using and what version you moved to WRT php. However, if you were running the default, the versions of software that run on CentOS-5 might have to be upgraded to run on the newer php in CentOS-6. (from php-5.1.6 to php-5.3.3) You might also need to follow the upgrade procedures when moving from the older version of mysql and postgresql in CentOS-5 to the newer versions in CentOS-6. (mysql-5.0.95 to mysql-5.1.67, postgresql-8.1.23 to postgresql-8.4.13) Upgrading for major versions (ie, from CentOS-5.x to CentOS-6.x) is a major undertaking and data/configuration files usually have to upgraded. This is unlike moving between point releases within the same major version (ie, moving from 5.8 to 5.9 or 6.3 to 6.4). This is because "minor version" upgrades are designed to just work because of backporting and freezing ABI/API changes inside the Major version ... whereas changing Major versions is a major upgrade and should be planned and testing accordingly. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
