Torubles with libxml2 update

Post by senioryoshi » 2017/08/28 22:07:31

Hi, i'm trying to update libxml2 because I need the php extension DOMDocument 2.7.8 or higher.

I tried to do this by using

yum update libxml2

but it says that the package libxml2-2.7.6-21.el6_8.1.x86_64 it's already the last version available (and installed)

I used

cat /etc/redhat-release

Output: CENTOS 6.9

rpm -qa|grep libxml2

Output:
libxml2-2.7.6-21.el6_8.1.x86_64
libxml2-python-2.7.6-21.el6_8.1.x86_64
libxml2-devel-2.7.6-21.el6_8.1.x86_64

How can I update this?

Please Help!

That is the latest version of libxml2 on CentOS 6. What are you really trying to do and did you check if something already supplies what you want in a packaged format.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

I'm trying to stablish a connection to a system that allows the page to make online payments on Chile (Transbank / Webpay Plus)
I tried everything and the only thing that i have different is the php extension requirements for DOM
They ask for 2.7.8 version and according to phpinfo() i have the 2.7.6 version.
Searching I found that it has to be the library libxml2 that i need to update.
I'm kinda new, so i don't understand everything.
From the Cpanel forums send me here.
Thanks in advance.
