CentOS: installing a PHP module without updating PHP

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

I am running PHP 5.3.5.

Now I need to install the php-mbstring module.

When I run:

yum install php-mbstring

I am asked to update PHP:

Installing:

How can I install the module for the PHP version 5.3.5 so that I can avoid updating PHP?

Thanks,
