MySQL installation failed dependencies error

I used yum install php to install it. however after I finished this installation, it shows the edition is only 5.3.3. (i got this information through the info.php page). But my the web site developer asked me at least prepare 5.4 for him. I have to upgrade it again.

Which way I should take? Can I use the same command as you provided above? Since the present edition was installed by yum, I am not sure rpm repository would recognize it.

My question is how to upgrade it from here? ,thank you a lot.

good, I will try it out this afternoon when I am vpn to office.

thanks and have a nice weekend.

I tried to run the above command as you instructed, it gives me this prompt:


[root@apollo downloaded]# rpm -Uvh MySQL-server-5.5.29-1.linux2.6.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:

Also, how to upgrade PHP version from 5.3.3 to 5.4.10. I downloaded php-5.4.10.tar. file and unzipped it. there is a folder there with the same name. The folder content is as follows:

[root@apollo php-5.4.10]# ls

thanks a lot, I will download the RPM package for PHP. Whichone should I run first to upgrade?

The developer is very annoying, he asked me to install these things exact the same version as he provided. I don't think there are lots of difference between versions.

thanks a lot.

After I upgrade, will it be working automatically or I need reconfigure it manually. I am not very good at LAMP setup, so kind of worry about it. thank you.

Hi, woolmilkporc:

Could you help me find an RPM package for PHP 5.4 or above? I plan to upgrade PHP first then MySQL. Thank you very much.

I got an article here: http://www.tecmint.com/install-apache-mysql-php-on-redhat-centos-fedora/

But I've already installed all the modules, just need to upgrade two of them, Do I need still follow this procedure, thank you.

hi, woolmilkporc:

Got all three parts re-installed, they are working perfectly.

I first uninstalled all modules then follow that article to install Rémi Collet's repository.

BTW, what does Remi collet's mean, is it a name? And also what does repository mean?

thanks.

got this solved, thank  you.
