newbie needs help installing rpm

jojeffs

New Pleskian
Hi I am new to plesk, linux and php and am trying to install soap on my vps using SSH. I have done some googling and found that I need to have the right version of the package for my php version which has lead me to find php-soap-5.3.3-27.el6_5.1.x86_64.rpm is the right package. However this seems to be from a repository that is not listed on my system as when I try to install it using yum commands it isn't available. Can someone point me in the right direction here, I'm guessing this is a very basic question but feeling much like rocket science to me at the moment :-0.

Thanks in advance.

The correct command would be: "yum install php-soap"

If the package has depency errors, or couldn't be found, try "yum list available | grep soap" to find the package you actually desire. :)
