 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Another user on SO had the issue when running 5.3, tried variations of their recommendations with no luck. The last two lines of the error make to recommendations but don't want try random commands that may negatively impact the server. Any ideas or more information I can provide?

To note, ultimately trying to install SSH2 but requires php-devel.

Answer 1

You need to uninstall all of PHP 5.3.

sudo yum erase php-common

Should remove all the PHP-5.3 packages.

Answer 2

You need to install php-devel by using this command:

for normal user

$ sudo yum install php54w-devel

for root user

$ yum install php54w-devel

You see this error due to your php version. I also faced same issue and I tried these code and it works for me.

Answer 3

You can go to /etc/yum.repos.d. and remove the extra repository that you can see in your error message.

If that doesnt work, try removing php by

yum remove php-common-5.3.3-46.el6_6.x86_64

Answer 4

Your packages are conflicting Error: php54w-common conflicts with php-common-5.3.3-46.el6_6.x86_64

Based off this forum post and the comments above running rpm -qa | grep -i php rpm -qa | grep -i php will show you which packages are installed so you can determine if 5.3 is safe to uninstall. Other tutorials have recommended yum list installed | grep php yum list installed | grep php as well.

If you're concerned about a production server (comments about production upgrades aside) then double check the PHP FPM and/or Apache2/nginx config too to check which PHP binaries/runtime are running the site (is it 5.4 or 5.3) before making any changes.

If you're trying to upgrade PHP

To resolve the conflict, simply remove the offending package (in this case 5.3), with yum remove php-common-5.3.3-46.el6_6.x86_64 before re-attempting the 5.5 install. Assuming your WordPress site is updated and plugins too then it should be 5.4 compat (at least from the past few years anyway).

If you're trying to add php-devel to build an extension for 5.4

Since you mentioned the server is reporting its 5.4 (despite having 5.3 still installed too) then you might need to follow this SO's advice and enable the devel repo for 5.4: yum --enablerepo=remi,remi-php54 install php-devel

Answer 5

You should run:

yum install php54w-devel

So when install php-extension have error:

*-common conflicts with php-common-5.3.3-46.el6_6.x86_64

Just type *-extension

Example:

yum install php-fpm have error

Error: php56u-common conflicts with php-common-5.3.3-46.el6_7.1.x86_64

then you should run

yum install php56u-fpm

The reason of this error is you install a php version don't match the system repo version. So yum get a version of the system repo, but this don't compatible with the php version you have installed. When you specific the php version, yum get the right version, so happy!
