I maintain RPM-packages for PHP 5.4 and 5.5, see earlier post about it.
As any sysadmin can expect, there was too much trouble running the updates. Since CentOS 6 native way is running yum repositories, I created one.
Kick things going by installing the repo-definition:
yum install \
http://opensource.hqcodeshop.com/CentOS/6%20x86_64/Parallels%20Plesk%20Panel/plesk-php-repo-1.0-1.el6.noarch.rpm
After that, a simple yum install command:
yum install plesk-php55
... will yield something like this:
/opt/php5.5/usr/bin/php -v
PHP 5.5.9 (cli) (built: Feb 9 2014 22:04:05)

I'll be compiling new versions to keep my own box in shape.

Sven on :
thanks for the explanation. i did it and now i got a problem that the database support is not activated. I tried to install mysql again, but it says it is already installed, i think at the 5.3.3 installation. But how can i install mysql in my 5.4 and 5.5 php installation?
Thanks in advance!
Jari Turkia on :
It should be given, that various features of PHP are in different packages and to get those features, you need to install them.
Sven on :
I am quite new to CentOS and Linux, but i have got a VPS now and i am learning as i go.
Thank you for the really fast answer!

Sven on :
i maybe got another noob question, in have installed 5.4 and 5.5 like you said and also the MySQL, but i found out that the only thing i don't have is the GD library, do you maybe have got a magic command line to install that on the both 5.4 and 5.5 installation?
Thank you!

I have got a joomla website and K2 is not working, i think it has something to do with mb_string.
Can you point me in the good direction here?
Thanks!!
Jari Turkia on :
yum install plesk-php54-mbstring
already?
Sven on :
K2 is now working, that was pretty simple.
Have you got a list with all those commands? so that i would not have to ask you every time...(-;
Thanks!!
Jari Turkia on :
It is possible to get a list of packages. Already installed or available ones. Try studying "yum list" command. To make your listing easier, try limiting the listing somehow.
Sven on :
I will study the yum list command!!
