Try this once .

This will downgrade your php version.

Download shell script from this link . once you have that .sh downloaded file. you need to change the permission using this command

sudo chmod 755 php5_4_downgrade_5.3.sh

Next you can run the script using this command

sudo sh php5_4_downgrade_5.3.sh
