Go PHP5
Posted: Tue Jul 24, 2007 8:54 am
I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, apologies if it's not.
We've decided to start moving over to php5 however one of our hosting companies is being a swine and saying it's our responsibility to do the upgrade. This has been tasked to me and having never upgraded anything on a linux box without the help of Yum I'm a little scared! Apparently yumming php5 is a bad idea, is this true?
I recently upgraded my home Windows development machine to php5 and remember having some issues with mySQL which I had to upgrade, something to do with libraries not being bundled with php anymore or something. I don't particularly want to headache of having to upgrade mySQL as well as PHP. Can anyone tell me if I'll have to? Or am I not giving enough information to let you know? The mySQL server is version 4.1.20 if that helps!
Also can anyone point me to an up to date tute on doing the install? I've found one but it's nearly 2 years old. The OS is Cent OS v 4.4
Your help is much appreciated!
