I'm trying to upgrade my php version (5.3.3) to a on a Centos 6.6 to get a 5.4's php's version (I'm a noob on server's configuration, in fact I'm a developer).
I've followed this tutorial http://sharadchhetri.com/2015/04/04/install-php-5-4-on-centos-6-with-yum-command/, I've followed what the first comment said (because It add MySql support).
My problem is that when I make this command line "source /opt/rh/php54/enable", I've php 5.4 on a cli context but not when I asked for a php script with my browser (making a basicallly phpinfo();).
I'va tryied as they said "To make PHP 5.4 available to all user ..." but nothing change.
I'm looking everywhere and I can't find any solution. Anyone has an idea ?
Regards,
Zé.
Notice: PHP 5.4 have reached its EOL (End of Life), so I highly recommend you upgrade to 5.5 or 5.6.
Tips: use the remi's repository configuration wizard: http://rpms.remirepo.net/wizard/
For the one who have the same problem, I've solve it by installing php 5.4 with remi's repository : https://www.zerostopbits.com/how-to-upg ... entos-6-7/
for information, I also had a problem with some package version, I have to change the remi's repository priority as explained https://wiki.centos.org/PackageManageme ... Priorities on "5. Specific Configuration"
Regards,
Ze.

I am trying to upgrade from Typo3 6.2 to a later version (to be determined). When I run the Core Update in the install tool the 'Fetched list of released versions' works, however, it is then followed by a 'General error'. In the log, this is the error:
Core: Exception handler (WEB): Uncaught TYPO3 Exception: #1380898792: No version matrix found in registry, call updateVersionMatrix() first. | TYPO3\CMS\Install\Service\Exception\CoreVersionServiceException thrown in file /home/usr/public_html/typo3/sysext/install/Classes/Service/CoreVersionService.php in line 271. Requested URL: https://domain.dev/typo3/sysext/install/Start/Install.php?install[action]=importantActions&install[context]=backend&install[controller]=tool&install%5Bcontroller%5D=ajax&install%5Baction%5D=coreUpdateIsUpdateAvailable&_=1608549770287
I have looked around for ages and can't find a fix that works. I will be very grateful for any help, please.
I don't think that you can update such an old Version by the install-tool update mechanism any more. since that version a lot has changed.
newer versions of 6.2 are only available as paid service (ELTS) from the TYPO3 GmbH.
And I think the server structure also changed meanwhile so that old ULRs might fail.
your way of update should be a manual update to (any outdated version of) 7 LTS, then the same for 8 LTS until you come to 9 LTS and 10 LTS
on each version do the upgrade wizards and fresh up the extensions if possible (including the upgrade wizards of the extensions).
individual extensions need their own updates.
use the deprecation log on each version to identify possible failures for the next TYPO3 version.
somewhere between you might change the installation to composer installation, which will result in a cleaner update way (if you are familiar with composer). for the future it will be very helpful to understand composer.
Currently, we are planning to upgrade our complete web-server node in production.
Platform is RHEL 7.1 and currently apache 2.4.6 is running there.
I also got to know from red-hat that apache 2.4.6 is directly shipped with RHEL7 and for 2.4.26 or 2.4.29, they can't comment regarding it's technical feasibility part along with it's stability on RHEL platform.
I have few concerns now :
Is going ahead with apache 2.4.26 or 2.4.29 in production would be a good option or should i get stuck with the current one ? I am doubtful whether 2.4.26 or 2.4.29 are been tested on RHEL 7 series and is technically compatible.
I tried to install apache 2.4.26 and 2.4.29 on my test-bed first ( which is a RHEL 7.4 platform ) and i came across package dependency issues which proved out to be a blocker for me. I am afraid that i might face these issues on production as well which would be very dangerous. Have you ever faced this on your system too ?
Looking out for your kind support and feedback here ... !!!
Best Regards,
looking at : httpd direct rpm download
it seems that the last supported version is httpd-2.4.6-80.el7.x86_64.rpm
so do not try update your production environment with unsupported software, stick to releases !
upgrading to RHEL7.4 seems to be trouble-maker (as far as i heard : [source required !] )
i got no feedback about RHEL7.5
when installing Zabbix v3.4 I get the following error message: http://imgur.com/a/xo3tg
Looks like an error in the yum repository. Do you have any suggestions for solutions or something similar?
Best regards
As you can see, there is just 2.2 version of Zabbix (agent, server, proxy, etc.) in that repository.
It seems Zabbix 2.2 (LTS) is the latest version supported by OpenSUSE using its repositories.
By the way, you can install older versions of Zabbix-agent (like 2.2) sending data correctly to newer server/proxy versions (like 3.0 or even 3.2).
I think the major item you will miss with using zabbix-agent older than 3.X is encryption. Other major features work very good.
A penetration test has recently identified that one of our RHEL(6.7) servers running Apache 2.2.15 is vulnerable on a number of points and needs to be updated to the latest version 2.4. I have run yum update and it says that there are no packages marked for update. I understand that I will need to download the updates manually. There are a few questions I have around the requirement to upgrade Apache.
I am up to date on the 2.2 version tree. Does this mean that any security patches made to version 2.4 will be back patched to version 2.2.X as well?
I am running PHP (version 5.3.3) and MySQL (version 5.1.73) - will these be affected by upgrading the Apache version (Google tells me that there is no problem on both fronts - but I thought I'd ask before I started down this route).
If you experts tell me that I have no other choice but to upgrade, then I'm planning on using the instruction set here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/138899/centos-install-using-yum-apache-2-4
Thank you in advance for your advice.
You could download the 2.4 source code from the Apache site and compile it. There's a setting which will configure for RedHat:
--enable-layout=RedHat
This setting will configure the paths for executables, configuration files, libraries etc in one go.
The following should be a reasonable starting point for a configuration line:
sh ./configure --enable-layout=RedHat --enable-mods-shared=all
then perform a make and make install
Do the same with a newer version of PHP (5.3.29 is available in the "old downloads" section, but try a newer version. Check the changes first though) and your problems should be lessened. Finally, MySQL or MariaDB is available for download and compilation too
Obviously, try all of this on a test machine first and back everything up. Your test machine should be as close as possible to your production machine. If you use something like VirtualBox to try it, you can take a snapshot at each point of the process and rollback if something goes wrong
I use Centos 6.5, I've installed apache 2.2 on my server by yum, I want to upgrade my apache to 2.4, but yum not support that, so I download apache 2.4.7 and install it to opt/apache/httpd-2.4.7 follow the tutorial here: Apache 2.4.x Manual install on RHEL 6.4 - No apache modules will load on start . I want to change environment variables to new apache version to write apache 2.4 modules (change include folder for header file, change "modules" folder when build with apxs,...). I think I must install another httpd-devel for apache 2.4.7, because I still not install httpd-devel-2.4.7, but I don't know how to install and use it instead of httpd-devel-2.2 by yum. I can not describe my problems clearly in English, so I hope you can understand it. I'm a newbie and I really need your help. Thank you!
CentOS is image of RHEL, which stands for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. RHEL is designed to be an "Enterprise class" operating system, in which you rely on software packages that are delivered from controlled repositories where they are made available only after being thoroughly tested for Enterprise level use.
From that point of view, its generally not a good idea to install packages from source code, or using third party RPMs, because once you do, your OS is no longer "Enterprise" class.
If you're trying to upgrade for security reasons, you shouldn't. Critical security updates are always backported in previous RPM releases, so you only have to update your current package from the same yum repo from where you got it first. The binary will still say it is Apache 2.2, but it will have the latest security updates.
If you need an actual feature of 2.4, the smart move is to upgrade your CentOS. It may seem like the harder option initially, but it never is in the long run.
In my experience these reports can be fairly basic/binary:
Are you running the latest version of the software? If no flag as security risk.
However this fails to take into account package managers which back port fixes to older versions and so often have addressed potential security issues.
By moving away from the packaged version you are making security updates more difficult (as can't do a simple "yum update" to address them anymore).
Apache 2.2 is still maintained for security and bug fixes - though how long for remains to be seen and it is falling further and further behind in features.
So often you just need to explain (and prove!) you have a regular patching process and so the "version of Apache" you are reporting is not really accurate in terms of security patching.
See here for more details: https://serverfault.com/questions/731657/pci-compliance-apache-versions/
Saying all that we moved to Apache 2.4 on centos a while back for some extra features we wanted and just upgrade it to the latest version as part of regular patching cycle and are not finding it too inconvenient. Yes it's not quite as simple as "yum update" but it's a decision we've made because of some features we required. Not a decision to be taken lightly as Garreth states but it had the added side effect of this not getting highlighted anymore in these sorts of security scans :-)
We made this decision despite upgrading to a newer version of Red Hat as that was still on an older version of Apache (2.4.7 if memory serves me correctly) which still missed a few features we required. Sometimes it's frustrating how far behind some of these "enterprise" versions are, but that's the downside when there are plenty of upsides to using them too (stability, security... etc.).
