Need help with yum,python and php in CentOS. (I made a complete mess!)
- by pek
Hello,
a while back I wanted to install some plugins for Trac but it required python 2.5 I tried installing it (I don't remember how) and the only thing I managed was to have two versions of python (2.4 and 2.5). Trac still uses the old version but the console uses 2.5 (python -V = Python 2.5.2). Anyway, the problem is not python, the problem is yum (which uses python).
I am trying to upgrade my PHP version from 5.1.x to 5.2.x. I tried following this tutorial but when I reach the step with yum I get this error:
[root@XXX]# yum update
Loading "installonlyn" plugin

Traceback (most recent call last):

Any help?
Thank you.
