I have 3 servers 2 of which run CentOS 5.5, and one with 5.7. I was able
to easily upgrade the PHP version to PHP 5.3.8 on the CentOS 5.5 boxes but
was thwarted on the 5.7. Does anyone have any tips for how to get PHP
5.3.x installed on CentOS 5.7?

    thats nice, but its not part of CentOS, so you should probably get on
    THEIR mail list and find out why its not working for 5.7

    I am not that particular about which method is used, I just want it
    installed. I am new to the list and apologize if asking for this type of
    help is inappropriate. Just trying to upgrade to make my developer happy.

    Luigi,

    I think there is a better way. You can use php53 packages from centos.
    I've had many bad experiences with third part repositories. So my
    suggestion is: use std. repo whenever is it possible

    I would love to use the standard repository, unfortunately the package is
    not found which was how I ended up finding the third part solution. I
    tried:
    yum update php
    yum upgrade php
    yum install php
    yum install php53

    I am not sure how to change repositories, not sure what the name is of the
    official CentOS repository is to use the --enablerepo= command or how to
    see if there is a php 5.3.x version available for my installation
    available or if I am beating my head against a wall and the CentOS 5.7 is
    actually incompatible with the newest version.

    it appears from your yum output, you have the base repositories disabled?!?

    The php53 package from the standard repo does not work well *, so you
    are better off using a 3rd party repo. General consensus is that the
    IUS repo (http://iuscommunity.org/) is the best one to use.

    I would remove the atomic repo, install IUS, then install/update php from there.

    Side point: Running arbitrary code from the web is a very bad idea, so
    you should never do something like this:
    wget -q -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic | sh # BAD!


    * It's not so good because it does not provide proper rpm tags that
    let other rpms know that php is installed. It announces itself as
    "php53", and most package looks for "php", so they can't find it.

    Atomic Rocket Turtle is an add-on repository for people running the
    PLESK control panel, so they can upgrade their version of php from that
    which PLESK installs by default.

    Which is exactly the problem that plagues the php53 packages upstream
    have supplied for EL5. IUS is about the best bet to resolve this issue

    I got the IUS installed using the commands but was still unable to upgrade

    Sorry Mark, I started this upgrade project a few days ago and am stepping
    back to it now that I have a little more time. I tried the php53u package
    like eero suggested but the package could not be found still. I did a "yum
    search php" and there aren't ANY packages that start with php, the closest
    I have is phc which is the php compliler. We would love to be able to
    figure this out so we can run php.activerecord.

    clean all might be a good idea, but I always use escaped wildcards, so
    there's no chance of shell interaction. Works fine fer me. Here's the
    first bit of what I get:
    php-domxml-php4-php5.noarch 1.21.2-1.el5 epel
    php53.x86_64 5.3.3-1.el5_6.1 base

    php53-mcrypt.x86_64 5.3.3-1.el5 epel

    Don't feel like adding the other page or two of php53's.

    there's no chance of shell interaction. Works fine fer me. Here's the
    What bothers me is "Excluding Packages in global exclude list" he got
    when runing yum. It looks like he has active global Exclude list or
    maybe base protection including php* files.

    "yum list \*php\* --disableplugin=* --enablerepo=* --showduplicates"
    might help.

It looked interesting seeing the php bolded in a command, though....

    While everyone was right, John got the "Gold Star" award for reminding me
    that this server has WHM Cpanel installed on it. So far the control panel
    interferes more than it ever helps when I am trying to manually install
    packages. Thank you all for your support, I have been very impressed with
    the promptness and ability of the list. I am now running the newest
    version on the machine by installing through the CP.

    Thanks again
