PHP 5.2 on CentOS

PHP 5.2 brings lots of little useful features and CentOS 5.3 comes with PHP 5.1. So most of my PHP apps failed. The easiest way to solve this is to :

• Edit /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Testing.repo and put this:

  [c5-testing]
  name=CentOS-5 Testing
  baseurl=http://dev.centos.org/centos/5/testing/$basearch/
  enabled=1
  gpgcheck=1
  gpgkey=http://dev.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-testing
  

• Launch:

  yum update php
