First to get PHP 5.4 on CentOS 6 you need to install and enable the EPEL and Remi 3rd party Software Repositories with these commands as root from a shell:<\/p>\n

wget http:\/\/dl.fedoraproject.org\/pub\/epel\/6\/x86_64\/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
\nwget http:\/\/rpms.famillecollet.com\/enterprise\/remi-release-6.rpm
\nrpm -Uvh remi-release-6*.rpm epel-release-6*.rpm<\/code><\/p>\n

Then run the yum install with the Remi repository enabled:<\/p>\n

yum --enable-repo=remi install php<\/code><\/p>\n

Accept the Remi Repository’s Key (or also use the option “-y” on the yum install command line above) and do note that this will upgrade the MySQL Server package too from the Remi Repo (up to mysql-server version 5.5.41-1.el6.remi).<\/p>\n

When the yum install is finished, just restart your MySQL Server and Web (Apache by default) server with:<\/p>\n

service mysqld restart
\nservice httpd restart<\/code><\/p>\n

If you need to or want to (check your \/var\/log\/mysqld.log file), you can update some of MySQL’s Internal Tables and such with the command:<\/p>\n

mysql_upgrade -uroot -pROOTMYSQLPASSWD<\/code><\/p>\n

(use your root mysql user’s password there of course :))<\/p>\n
