Re: why can't I upgrade php?

Or from another machine you reference the the hostname in the browser's address bar:

http://your.host.name/info.php


I should have written (in place of the above):

"Or from another machine on the local network...".

That is, not from another machine on the internet. Not unless you have registered a domain and done the DNS stuff correctly. And if your local DNS isn't working, you won't see anything from another machine on the local network, either.

To answer this and your earlier query:

The reason rpm failed is because you need to install all the other packages that php is split into, too:

rpm -Fvh php* php-ldap* php-mysql*...

(correct the paths to the RPM files as needed.) In other words, you freshen all of the php files, all at the same time. php-imap has a dependency on php in the same version.

In your document root in /var/www/html, is there a file named info.php that has the <? phpinfo() ?> script in it? You should be able to see the phpinfo with a standard install of both httpd and php (provided, of course, that you have not incorrectly updated the config files httpd.conf and php.ini.)

It's very strange that you can't get this working from a fresh install, so you must have made extensive changes to httpd.conf and php.ini.

I am trying to upgrade to the latest stable php, and I get the following message with rpm -Uvh php-4.3.4-1.1.i386.rpm (even if I try the --force tag).

I get a similar error if I try to erase (rpm -e) the old php file.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks, I downloded all the updates and updated to 4.3.4 with no change in the blank screen problem. Googling around, many users seem to have the blank screen with php problem, but I have yet to see a post with a solution.

I made only a few minor changes to the httpd.conf and php.ini files. I had backed up the original files, and I just restored them and rebooted my system.

Still the same blank screen problem.  Something is broken somewhere.  :-{
