Topic: Upgrading 7.1.3 to 7.2 reinstalling PHP5 problem

[ReetP]

Hi,

I managed to remove PHP5 and run yum update to take me up to SME 7.2

I have a slight situation upgrading PHP back to V5 :

I tried

yum --enablerepo=base --enablerepo=updates --enablerepo=centosplus install php-common

This installs

php-common-5.1.6-3.el4s1.7

which is newer

Any ideas on how to get my PHP back to version 5 ?

Many thanks
