How to install Multiple PHP versions on CentOS 6
To install Multiple PHP versions on CentOS 6
PHP is a server scripting language used for the development of software applications with the help of internet. It is a powerful tool to create dynamic contents for interaction with databases.In this tutorial we will be briefed on how to install and run two different PHP versions on same machine. For example both PHP versions 5 and 7 will be run on a single server because some of the applications may require for PHP version 5 and other applications may require for PHP version 7. So in this case we need to both PHP versions running in a single system.
Installation procedure
PHP version 5
To proceed with the installation procedure, install the PHP version 5 in the target system using yum install command and press y to continue with the installation.

Rename the file php into php2 because we have already installed previous PHP using yum command as mentioned above. To avoid any conflict, rename the file to php2.
[root@linuxhelp bin]# mv php php2
To create new command, first create a script file under /etc/profile.d/ directory location named php2.sh and enter the following content in the file. Save and exit the file.
[root@linuxhelp bin]# vim /etc/profile.d/php2.sh
pathmunge /usr/local/php2/bin/
Now close the current terminal and reopen a new terminal. Check the new command php2 is working by running the version of the php2. The second PHP is working without any clashes with the first PHP version.
[root@linuxhelp ~]# php2 -v
