yum install php-mysql 无法安装 Centos

Question

I am having difficulty installing php-mysql, I do the following:

yum -y install php-mysql

but get the following:

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: centos.escapemg.com
 * extras: mirror.chpc.utah.edu
 * updates: mirrors.xmission.com
Setting up Install Process
No package php-mysql available.
Error: Nothing to do

I did a yum repolist disabled and enabled yum-config-manager --enable C6.1-base but still keep getting the same No package php-mysql available.

Answer 1

I figured it out, it appeared that mysql in /etc/yum.conf there was a line exclude=mysql* php* once I commented it out, I was able to yum install mysqlnd . Thanks to everyone who

Answer 2

The obvious problem is that you don't have a repository with PHP installed. It's odd that base doesn't have one but you can fix this by installing the remi repository , which has PHP 5.4 through 5.6 (just enable the version you want)

I would highly suggest installing php-mysqlnd instead of php-mysql , as that is the native driver and does not require any mysqlclientXX libraries, which are a mess to maintain.
