How to Installing PHP<\/h1>\n
\n

Installation<\/h2>\n

If you want to display much beyond static HTML, it\u2019s likely that you\u2019ll be looking to use PHP on your server<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Installing is pretty simple from the standard CentOS repositories, and can be achieved like so:<\/p>\n

\n
\n
yum install php php-common php-devel php-pear php-mysql<\/span>\r\n<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
This will install PHP along with the relevant configuration to tie it into Apache (provided Apache was installed from the standard repositories).<\/p>\n
\n
As CentOS\/RHEL are long term release style operating systems, you won\u2019t get bleeding edge or even recent releases of PHP from the standard repositories.<\/p>\n
They will however, have backported security fixes from higher versions to keep it secure.\u00a0Vulnerability Scans<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
\n
Configuration<\/h2>\n
Out of the box, PHP doesn\u2019t really need much configuration, so unless you have any particular values in mind that you\u2019d like to change there probably isn\u2019t much to see here.<\/p>\n
It can\u2019t hurt to familiarise yourself with the location of config files however, so you can find the main PHP configuration file here:<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\/etc\/php.ini<\/span>\r\n<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Configuration for individual modules may be found in the following directory, depending on how the module is configured:<\/p>\n
\n
\n
\/etc\/php.d\/<\/span>\r\n<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
\n
Starting it up<\/h2>\n
PHP isn\u2019t a service on Linux, so there\u2019s no\u00a0init<\/span><\/code>\u00a0script you need to run.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019ve only just installed it though, you probably want to restart Apache so that it can load in the new PHP runtime:<\/p>\n
\n
\n
service httpd restart<\/span>\r\n<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
\n
Further modules<\/h2>\n
It\u2019s likely that you\u2019ll need more modules than the basic ones described above, especially if you\u2019re going to run a site that depends on a database.<\/p>\n
To install other modules, such as\u00a0php-mysql<\/span><\/code>\u00a0or\u00a0php-mcrypt<\/span><\/code>\u00a0the following guide should help:<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
