Re: PHP on RH 7.0

[Tom Westheimer <tom westheimers net>]

Well your suggestion to get all new RPMs with one command sounded too 
good to be true :-) So here is what happened ..
the first 3 lines are obvious. the phpinfo.php is a web page that one 
can use to test if PHP is running.  I didn't realize I had so many 
dependants! :-)
phpinfo.php = <? phpinfo();?> in the code

[root myhost  RPMS]# rpm -Uvh *
error: TRANS.TBL does not appear to be a RPM package
error: php-4.3.4.tar.gz.tar does not appear to be a RPM package
error: phpinfo.php does not appear to be a RPM package
