PHP 5.2 upgrade issue

[Nick Endle]

Hello, I run Parallels 9.5 on CentOS, running a webserver with PHP 5.1.6 and I would like to upgrade to 5.2. I've tried to upgrade through yum, and it says its successful and doing php -v reports that I have 5.2.6 installed, however when I bring up phpinfo() on my webserver it still says 5.1.6. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Restart your httpd

yeah, tried restarting it, still using the old php version.

Check your installed packages, you must still have 5.1.6 packages installed. What does 'rpm -qa | grep ^php | sort' say?

What repository did you use to get PHP 5.2.6 from? I recommend Atomic Rocket Turtle's atomic repository, which is currently on 5.2.13.

And you say 'php -v' shows 5.2.6? Looks like you still have 5.1.6 installed to me.

I don't know why, but the atomic channel you added doesn't seem to be used by yum. Do you have any custom excludes in /etc/yum.conf? You do have /etc/yum.repos.d/atomic.repo with an enabled atomic section? Maybe try a 'yum clean all' and try again?
