Trying to deploy a Kohana based project in CentOS 5. Installed PHP 5.3.1 but still getting the following error.

Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Compilation failed: this version of PCRE is not compiled with PCRE_UTF8 support at offset 0 in /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/icarus/system/core/utf8.php on line 30

Fatal error: PCRE has not been compiled with UTF-8 support. See PCRE Pattern Modifiers for more information. This application cannot be run without UTF-8 support. in /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/icarus/system/core/utf8.php on line 38

Trying since last 2 days, i upgraded my PHP from 5.1 to 5.3 but still getting the same error.The problem as per me is that the PCRE module of PHP in phpinfo() says is of sep 2004. Below is the actual line

PCRE Library Version    5.0 13-Sep-2004 

Can anyone tell me how to upgrade it or wats the solution to the problem.

Thanks.
