That’s what I’ve got. I guess I already knew that but this weekend brought it home that I had more than a nifty little gadget for checking my emails, reading my feeds and surfing the internet.
It came about when we had a little issue with one of the web sites that we have developed and support. No matter. I had with me in my iPhone all of the tools that I needed to fix the problem whilst doing a spot of shopping. Well almost I was missing one little app which I now have (touchterm).
One last thing i’ve written this little post using the wordpress app on my iPhone.

I thought that I’d share my experiences of updating php specifically for fedora core 5, as that’s what’s running on one of my companies dev servers. The reason for the upgrade? Magento eCommerce requires version 5.2 and fedora 5 only has 5.1.6. In the end it’s a very simple process, by sharing it I’m hoping to save you some of the pain.
- cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
- wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/remi-fedora.repo
- yum –enablerepo=remi update php
- apachectl graceful
PHP 5.2 is now installed and apache has restarted and is now running the newly updated php.
As this update was forced upon me by Magento, there is one further requirement. The mcrypt library.
- yum –enablerepo=remi install php-mcrypt (don’t yum install php-mcrypt – as this will get you an incompatible version for your newly updated php).
- apachectl graceful
You should now have version 5.2 of php and Magento will have all of the libraries that it needs to run. Easy when you know how!
