In the previous tutorial, we learn How to upgrade PHP on LINUX, but in that tutorial, we install PHP5.3. Now, how to upgrade PHP5.3 to PHP5.4 on LINUX?
Step 1: Find out the version of Centos
You can use 2 methods:
[root@tutorialspots build]# cat /etc/issue CentOS release 5.3 (Final) Kernel \r on an \m [root@tutorialspots build]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5.3 (Final)
In this example, we use CentOS 5.3.
Step 2: Add new Repository
CentOS/RHEL 7.x:
rpm -Uvh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm rpm -Uvh https://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el7/webtatic-release.rpm
CentOS/RHEL 6.x:
rpm -Uvh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-6.noarch.rpm rpm -Uvh https://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el6/latest.rpm
CentOS/RHEL 5.x:
rpm -Uvh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-5.noarch.rpm rpm -Uvh http://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el5/latest.rpm
Sample output:
[root@tutorialspots build]# rpm -Uvh https://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el6/latest.rpm Retrieving https://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el6/latest.rpm error: skipping https://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el6/latest.rpm - transfer failed - Unknown or unexpected error [root@tutorialspots build]# rpm -Uvh http://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el5/latest.rpm Retrieving http://mirror.webtatic.com/yum/el5/latest.rpm warning: /var/tmp/rpm-xfer.WYtIbb: Header V4 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID cf4c4f f9 Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:webtatic5-release ########################################### [100%]
Step 3: install yum-plugin-replace
[root@tutorialpots build]# yum install yum-plugin-replace Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, protectbase Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * epel: linux.mirrors.es.net * base: mirror.keystealth.org * updates: mirror.pac-12.org * webtatic-el5: us-east.repo.webtatic.com * extras: mirrors.easynews.com * addons: mirror.chpc.utah.edu webtatic-el5 | 2.5 kB 00:00 824c428e0a3abafaa54c85714ea04653bd6bd8ad-primary.sqlite. | 87 kB 00:00 0 packages excluded due to repository protections Setting up Install Process Parsing package install arguments Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package yum-plugin-replace.noarch 0:0.2.7-1.ius.el5 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ================================================================================ Package Arch Version Repository Size ================================================================================ Installing: yum-plugin-replace noarch 0.2.7-1.ius.el5 webtatic-el5 17 k Transaction Summary ================================================================================ Install 1 Package(s) Update 0 Package(s) Remove 0 Package(s) Total download size: 17 k Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: yum-plugin-replace-0.2.7-1.ius.el5.noarch.rpm | 17 kB 00:00 warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: Header V4 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID cf4c4ff9 Importing GPG key 0xCF4C4FF9 "Andy Thompson <andy@webtatic.com>" from /etc/pki/r pm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-webtatic-andy Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: yum-plugin-replace-0.2.7-1.ius.el5.noarch.rpm | 17 kB 00:00 warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: Header V4 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID cf4c4ff9 Importing GPG key 0xCF4C4FF9 "Andy Thompson <andy@webtatic.com>" from /etc/pki/r pm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-webtatic-andy Is this ok [y/N]: y Running rpm_check_debug Running Transaction Test Finished Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction Installing : yum-plugin-replace [1/1] Installed: yum-plugin-replace.noarch 0:0.2.7-1.ius.el5 Complete!
Step 4:
Now we can replace PHP 5.3 TO PHP 5.4
yum replace php53 --replace-with=php54w
Sample output:
[root@tutorialpots build]# yum replace php53 --replace-with=php54w Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, protectbase, replace Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * epel: linux.mirrors.es.net * base: mirror.keystealth.org * updates: mirror.pac-12.org * webtatic-el5: us-east.repo.webtatic.com * extras: mirrors.easynews.com * addons: mirror.chpc.utah.edu 0 packages excluded due to repository protections Replacing packages takes time, please be patient...

you can continue by tying “y“
Step 5: service httpd restart
Done! Welcome to PHP 5.4
