Hi,
I am following the instructions here to install multiple PHP versions.
https://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/web/multiplephp
However, when I run the commands:
yum install centos-release-scl
followed by:
yum install rh-php72 rh-php72-php-mysqlnd
I get the errors:
No package rh-php72 available.
No package rh-php72-php-mysqlnd available.
Error: Nothing to do
Any idea what might be wrong?
Howdy,
Hmm, what Linux distribution/version is it that you’re using there?
-Eric
Hi Eric,
It’s Centos 6.10.
I have the sama problem, did you find a solution ?
Centos 6.10
Howdy,
I did a little digging on the SCL site, and unfortunately what I’m seeing is that the PHP packages appear to only be built for CentOS 7 now… it doesn’t appear that they’re being made available to systems running CentOS 6.
Just to verify though, what output do you receive with this command:
yum search php
Unfortunately, the answer may be though that it’s not possible to use a newer PHP version with that old a distro. Sorry!
-Eric
ok I see, perhaps 7.1 ?
Now running 5.3.3, 5.4.40, 7.0.27

Howdy,
From what I’m seeing there, it looks like the SCL repo no longer has anything newer than PHP 7.0 for CentOS 6.
I see PHP 7.1 in your output above, but that’s for the IUS repo, which I’m not really familiar with… we haven’t done any testing with that.
I’ll also offer that PHP 7.1 hits it’s end of life next month, and for that reason I really can’t recommend it.
I’m really sorry, but it’s looking like if you need newer software versions, you may need to go with a newer distro.
Virtualmin’s CentOS 8 support should be available soon, you may consider testing that out once it’s announced.
-Eric
Ok I have Centos 8 ready for testing so I will wait until the support is there.
Thanks
Henry
