How to install php5.6 in CentOS 7.0 yum

After php5.6 is installed, you no longer need to install Zend Guard. Instead, you can use the yum command to install php-opcache and php-pecl-apcu, which can effectively improve the php execution speed.

1. Configure the yum source

Check whether the yum source link is valid.

# Rpm-Uvh http://ftp.iij.ad.jp/pub/linux/fedora/epel/7/x86_64/e/epel-release-7-5.noarch.rpm
# Rpm-Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm
2. Confirm the installed php version.

# Yum list -- enablerepo = remi -- enablerepo = remi-php56 | grep php

3. Install php5.6

# Yum install -- enablerepo = remi -- enablerepo = remi-php56 php-opcache php-pecl-apcu php-devel php-mbstring php-mcrypt php-mysqlnd php-phpunit-PHPUnit php-pecl -xdebug php-pecl-xhprof php-pdo php-pear php-fpm php-cli php-xml php-bcmath php-process php-gd php-common
Php-opcache and php-pecl-apcu can effectively improve the php execution speed.

4. Confirm the php version
