I am running nginx 1.0 on centos 5.6. I had php 5.1.6 installed and running and then decided to uninstall it and switch to php 5.3. I ran the following commands:

[user@server]$ /etc/init.d/nginx stop [user@server]$ yum remove php php-* [user@server]$ sudo yum install php53-cli php53-common php53-devel php53-gd php53-mbstring php53-mysql php53-soap php53-xml php53-xmlrpc php53-bcmath php53-snmp [user@server]$ /etc/init.d/nginx start

Now, when I view the output of phpinfo() in a browser, it still reads 'PHP Version 5.1.6'.

What step(s) did I miss?

    PHP does not run within Nginx, simply use your PHP init script to restart PHP and you should be good. Commented Aug 23, 2011 at 23:49

Other guy kinda hinted at the right thing, is it possible to split an acceptance?

  • I just had to run /etc/init.d/php-cgi restart and it was fine! Commented Aug 24, 2011 at 14:19

Are there some old php processes still running? Stop nginx, check for any php processes running (depends on how you're running php stuff under nginx), kill any and restart if it's a persistent PHP FPM and then try again?
