=========================================
Installing PHP 5.4 on RHEL 6 and CentOS 6
=========================================
Red Hat Enterprise Linux and CentOS 6 still ship with PHP 5.3. ownCloud
requires PHP 5.4 or better. There are several third-party repositories that
supply PHP 5.4, but you must use the Software Collections (SCL) repository to
be in compliance with your RHEL support contract, and not any other third-party
repository.
RHEL 6
------
Follow these steps to install PHP 5.4 from SCL. First you must use
your Subscription Manager to enable SCL::
subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-server-rhscl-6-eus-rpms
Then install PHP 5.4 and these modules::
yum install php54 php54-php php54-php-gd php54-php-mbstring
You must also install the updated database module for your database. This
example installs the new PHP 5.4 module for MySQL/MariaDB::
yum install php54-php-mysqlnd
Activate the new PHP version permanently::
source /opt/rh/php54/enable
Disable loading the old PHP 5.3 Apache module::
mv /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf/old
You should now have a /etc/httpd/conf.d/php54-php.conf file, which loads the
correct PHP 5.4 module for Apache.
Then restart Apache::
service httpd restart
Verify with :ref:`label-phpinfo` that your Apache server is using PHP 5.4 and loading
the correct modules.
CentOS 6
--------
First install the SCL repo::
yum install centos-release-SCL
Then install PHP 5.4 and these modules::
yum install php54 php54-php php54-php-gd php54-php-mbstring
You must also install the updated database module. This installs the new PHP 5.4
module for MySQL/MariaDB::
yum install php54-php-mysqlnd
Activate the new PHP version permanently::
source /opt/rh/php54/enable
Disable loading the old PHP 5.3 Apache module::
mv /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf/old
You should now have a /etc/httpd/conf.d/php54-php.conf file, which loads the
correct PHP 5.4 module for Apache.
Finally, restart Apache::
service httpd restart
Verify with :ref:`label-phpinfo` that your Apache server is using PHP 5.4 and loading
the correct modules.
