on which machine are you installing apache and php? is it an internal-only type, or will it be a production machine? security concerns are not the same

If is a machine purely used for internal development and not reachable from outside the company, you might consider using a XAMPP package which installs automatically Apache + PHP + MySQL (although you do not mention it, I'm pretty sure you need it!) + phpMyAdmin (for MySQL) in a nice package.
But be aware that this package installs with some security holes, that's why it is easy to install

Also have a look at the Zend Platform, which again might be an easy to use platform for Apache + Php

>>>you can get all the php version from
>>>http://www.php.net/downloads.php
its only those versions :
PHP 5.3.0
PHP 5.2.11
suppose I need version 5.0 or version 4.0
from where can I download it
hi fibo
my priority for security then for flexibility
if I'm using yum cann't I install specific version of package
suppose I need version 5.0 :  

5.0  is the older version.

You can use 5.2 or 5.3

The way you are thinking about security it does not work that way

Example, suppose if you use 5.2 , and then some one finds any problem on security, php will  fixed that by giving you patches...


as far i know there is not any security issue for either 5.2  or 5.3
so if you want recent version then you go for 5.3
