Running CentOS + Apache + PHP + MySQL

running yum list installed *php* gives me this:

running php -v gives me this:

PHP 5.4.40 (cli) (built: Aug 30 2016 13:52:21)

running pecl install imagick gives me this:

pecl/imagick requires PHP (version >= 5.4.0), installed version is 5.3.3

The context is that I'm running a php script through apache that uses Imagick; it worked until I upgraded PHP (from 5.3.3 to 5.4.4), where it tells me PHP Fatal error: Class 'Imagick' not found in blah/blah/blah .

So, I would like to get rid of php 5.3.3, but would also like to understand the ridiculous mess of wiring of everything to everything else that's going on.

So, more precisely: What do I need to do to get imagick installed and used by apache + php 5.4.4?

bonus questions:

  • I noticed the php 5.4 binaries (?) all have the prefix php54, yet the 5.3 versions are just 'php'. Am I supposed to delete the old 'php' version and then alias all the php54 stuff to just php?
  • Is there some universal 'php' construct that declares the system wide "I'm the default php, use me"?
  • Does pear and pecl need to be reinstalled through php 5.4?

  • You installed these packages? Where did they come from? – Michael Hampton Jan 13 '17 at 19:54
  • Is this Cento 6? If so, remove php.x86_64 - which is 5.3.3. That will leave 5.4.40. Yum is seeing that 5.3 is installed and that is causing a dependency problem. As an aside, 5.3 and 5.4 are both EOL. – Gmck Jan 13 '17 at 20:09
