PHP 5.3.23的PHP-Devel依赖性问题

Question

I am trying to install php-devel and I get this issue.

I have PHP Installed, I have tried Googling and other things but they don't work.

This is my environment:

PHP -version

PHP 5.3.26 (cli) (built: Jun  9 2013 12:23:50)
Copyright (c) 1997-2013 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2013 Zend Technologies

OS version: cat /etc/redhat-release

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client release 5.5 (Tikanga)


[root@box html]# yum install php-devel

Answer 1

Follow the instructions in the link.

or if you are done installing and configuring your MYSQL and Web Server just copy the below:

yum install php php-mysql php-common php-gd php-mbstring php-mcrypt php-devel php-xml

Download and install the following RPM

http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/21966196/dir/centos_other/com/php-devel-5.3.26-1.w5.x86_64.rpm.html

Problem: You have php 5.3.26 and you are trying to install php-devel 5.1

Check the RPM provided. I suppose it should go with Red Hat 5.5. If it doesn't either you need to find the appropriate RPM of php-devel 5.3.26 for your system (try yum install php53-devel) or Downgrade your php to version 5.1. Or update your repos and then you can fetch the latest version of both php and php-devel using yum

OK I suppose this should work.

Step 1: Remove the current version of php

yum erase php

Step 2: Download and install the following RPM

http://rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/remi/enterprise/5/x86_64/php-5.4.16-1.el5.remi.x86_64.html

Step 3: Download and Install this RPM

http://rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/remi/enterprise/5/x86_64/php-devel-5.4.15-1.el5.remi.x86_64.html

Answer 2

Your problem seems to be that you have PHP 5.3 installed on your machine, but the default php-devel package that yum tries to install is for PHP 5.1, which causes the conflict. You can instead try to install the php-devel meant for PHP 5.3. In some cases, this can be done with:

yum install php53-devel
