If i do "yum update php" , the mysql also get upgrade to 5.x, which i do not want.

If i put "exclude=mysql mysql-server mysql-client mysql-devel" in /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo…, it complains about dependence of php-mysql package, then i removed the package, but damaged the Plesk !!!
 Confused

Thanks.

Hi,

You would need to compile PHP manually to have 2 different versions of PHP on the server. It is not possible to get them both installed at the same time using RPM.

Oh, no, I definetly don't want to config 2 sets of PHP on one server, it just make things complicated and may bring extra trouble later.

I like php5, the speed is faster than php 4 and has new functions i would chose to use.

I don't like mysql5, the speed is slow, and the new functions i most likely will to to use.

so i only have 2 choices: php4+mysql4( orginal setup), or upgrade to php5+mysql5.

tough call.  Doh

Ahh, I am sorry I overlooked that you wanted PHP5 with Mysql 4. You can try to upgrade to PHP 5.1.6 leaving MySQL 4 installed. To do so, edit /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo and set "enabled=1" for centosplus repository. Then run

Code:
yum upgrade php

Please advise how the upgrade goes for you.

I was thinking the same way, but i found out it is impossible to only upgrade PHP, the mysql will automaticly upgrade too, since they are dependences. Nope

If you really want speed then try PHP eAccelerator on your PHP4. It said 4-10 times faster than PHP5.
