Re: how to upgrade php in linux

Add DAG and RPMForge repos (google for how to) and try to do a yum install.Compiling from source might not be the best option if you are new to Linux. Sent from my iPhone On 03/05/2010, at 10:57 PM, Chaitanya Yanamadala <dr.virus.india@gmail.com

I have no experience with CentOS but I'm pretty sure it would have a package manager similiar to apt-get, or yum. If CentOS uses RPM then you could go download php 5.3.2 off the web and then open a terminal and type: root (to login as root) password (enter root password) change the directory to where you saved the file: cd /path/to/where/the/file/is rpm -Uvh ( enter name of the package that you downloaded here and omit the parenthesis ) -- Blessings, David M. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
