Issue update PHP 7 on CentOS 7

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

I would like to update PHP 7.0.2.6 to the latest 7.2 version on my CentOS 7 server (with DirectAdmin installed) via SSH. I found many procedures on the internet, but none of them seems to work. I was told the procedure should look like this:

1. yum install epel-release
2. rpm -Uvh http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm
3. yum list installed php*
4. yum remove php*
5. yum install --enablerepo=remi-php72 php php-mcrypt php-cli php-gd php-curl
6. php-mysql php-ldap php-zip php-fileinfo
7. php -v

I get stuck with step 4, giving the result below. Any thoughts what could be the issue here?

[root@vps ~]# yum list installed php*
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror

 * base: ams.edge.kernel.org
 * epel: ams.edge.kernel.org
 * extras: mirror.nforce.com
 * ius: mirror.ehv.weppel.nl
 * remi-php71: remi.mirror.wearetriple.com
 * remi-php72: remi.mirror.wearetriple.com
 * remi-safe: remi.mirror.wearetriple.com
 * updates: centos.mirror.transip.nl
 * webtatic: uk.repo.webtatic.com
Error: No matching Packages to list

Additional information:

[root@vps ~]# dir -A .bash_history .custombuild .rnd .bash_logout epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm setup-ius.sh .bash_profile .pki .spamassassin .bashrc remi-release-7.rpm .ssh .cshrc remi-release-7.rpm.1 .tcshrc

Result step 5:

[root@vps ~]# yum install --enablerepo=remi-php72 php php-mcrypt php-cli php-gd php-curl
