Just saw the 5.3.2 stuff, but not until after I had already upgraded my way... quick and dirty.

Wanted to play with Kohana, but the "Enviroment Test" page came up somewhat "lacking"

Alrighty...let's fix this thing.

yum remove php-ldap #to squash later dependency issues



#add EPEL and Remi repos to YUM

wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm

wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-5.rpm

rpm -Uvh remi-release-5*.rpm epel-release-5*.rpm



yum --enablerepo=remi update mysql php #to resolve mysql dependencies



service httpd restart

Upgrade to 5.3.3. accomplished !

Hi, thanks for the info.

I did this and it seemed to work ok but oddly Ive now lost access to the ClearOS webconfig. Everything else seems to continue to function ok.

Edit .....

Bah, nevermind, just one particular PC playing silly buggers Works fine.

I followed the above and it updated to PHP 5.3.5.

PHPMyAdmin now comes up with two warnings:

The additional features for working with linked tables have been deactivated.
Your PHP MySQL library version 5.0.77 differs from your MySQL server version 5.1.54. This may cause unpredictable behavior.

and I get some garbage at the top of my website.

Can anyone help?

The PHP version used by the webconfig is seperate from the version used in the web server,so you can ignore the phpmyadmin warning

To help with the web server PHP issues, can you look at the logs? /var/log/httpd/access_log or /var/log/httpd/error_log

Can you also run 'php -v' and post the output?

In case that you need php-ldap extension back to your system, you will need to compile it from the source by follow these steps:

1. Install required packages

yum install gcc

yum --enablerepo=remi install php-devel

load the PHP source code from php.net site. It might be important to load the corresponding source version.
then extract it to the /usr/src/php. For example, the PHP 5.3.5 source code should be under /usr/src/php/php-5.3.5, and so. Then change directory to the ldap extension source code, it is under /usr/src/php/php-5.3.5/ext/ldap

2. Compile the extension

phpize

./configure --enable-ldap

make

3. Install the extension

cp modules/ldap.so /usr/lib/php/modules

And then add following content into /etc/php.d/ldap.ini

; Enable ldap extension module

extension=ldap.so

4. restart httpd

I need some help with this procedure. I'm not finish yet, but have a missing/old location which makes the installation fail

Any ideas ?

5.3.6 is available as per instructions here - might help?

Hey Tim,

This is off-topic, but it is MY post so....

Have you consider building the suhosin extention?

Thanks.

Hi, i've not heard of it! looks interesting and straight forward enough to implement. Do you use it?

Do you use it?

Yes. I typically phpize it myself, but if an rpm is available I'd certainly use it
