If you use it, please report results to centos-devel to help get it out of testing.

Thanks. I am a newbie so I need instructions to enter.
So I would use:

wget http://dev.centos.org/centos/5/CentOS-Testing.repo

Then what would I put for the --enablerepo= ?

yum --enablerepo=????? install php-common
yum --enablerepo=????? install php
yum install gd gd-devel
yum --enablerepo=????? install php-mcrypt php-xml php-xml php-devel php-imap php-soap php-mbstring php-mysql
yum --enablerepo=????? install php-mhash php-simplexml php-dom

Thanks for your input!!

Just as a note, you will likely need to mix "yum install ..." and "yum update ...". Basically you need to update/upgrade an already installed package and install a not-installed package.

toracat - I just did that - thanks. the testing repo is now part of the system.

pjwelsh - can you let me know which I need to "yum install ..." and "yum update ..."?

would it be:

yum upgrade php-common
yum upgrade php

A lot of the following packages are already in place. Do I need to install or upgrade or does it matter?

yum install gd gd-devel
yum install php-mcrypt php-xml php-xml php-devel php-imap php-soap php-mbstring php-mysql
yum install php-mhash php-simplexml php-dom

Also, which directories off root do I need to back up in case this screws the system up?

Many many thanks!!

For the OP, webdev2. This is the contents of my /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Testing.repo file --

# CentOS-Testing.repo
#
# !!!! CAUTION !!!!
# This repository is a proving grounds for packages on their way to CentOSPlus and CentOS Extras.
# They may or may not replace core CentOS packages, and are not guaranteed to function properly.
# These packages build and install, but are waiting for feedback from testers as to 
# functionality and stability. Packages in this repository will come and go during the 
# development period, so it should not be left enabled or used on production systems without due
# consideration. 

[c5-testing]
name = CentOS-$releasever - Testing 
baseurl = http://dev.centos.org/centos/$releasever/testing/$basearch/
gpgcheck = 1
gpgkey = http://dev.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-testing
priority = 50
enabled = 0

-- note my setting of its priority to 50 and that it is routinely disabled. Hence the --enablerepo=c5-testing on my yum command line in post #2.

Okay, I did the upgrade of php using c5-testing repo. But I canīt find how to upgrade the packages php-mcrypt and php-mhash, which are needed by horde.

Any help is highly appreciated!

I just found out that even if the command line saids 5.2.6 when I do a phpinfo() from a site
it is still running PHP Version 5.1.6 So some how I need it so httpd also is running this version..

Times like this reminds me how little I know..

Thanks
Don
