There is something for 4.3.4, but that version has some nasty bugs

I hope Dan soon will build his RPMS for PHP v4.3.5...

I tried it this afternoon (no luck) way  

[Rigger]

php-4.3.5rc

ergozd:
 
Custom RPM updates for RedHat 7.3 are avaliable at

You'll find updates for curl, gd, apache etc...

I am using a few his RPMS and have not had any problem so far

Yeah!!! Look to Dans contrib area. He's built the php-4.3.5 package. Still have to use --nodeps for the devel package though same as 4.3.4.

Which one's do you need for 6.0B3 and how do you download those from the cmd line on the server?

[whistler]

You can use mc and it's ftp link - sort files by date and you will see. I skipped manual, developer, odbc, postresql, as far as I remember.

I'm interested in upgrading my PHP version, but can only find old HOWTOs and dead links. Could you tell me where the DanBrown contribs area is? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Thanks,

Can someone write a how to.  I have ryed installign the RPm and it is still showing I have an older copy of PHP

[DanB35]

Still have to use --nodeps for the devel package though same as 4.3.4.

Shouldn't have to use --nodeps for anything.  What exactly is the dependency failure on the devel package?

BTW, keep an eye out for 4.3.6; looks like they introduced a couple of new bugs in 4.3.5.  Once I see that 4.3.6 final is out, I'll build RPMs of that.

Have you restarted httpd?

# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd-e-smith restart
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd-admin restart

[DanB35]

Yes still showing "PHP Version 4.1.2"

Did you have any error messages when you installed?  What do you get if you do 'rpm -q php'?
