Centos 6.6上的yum list * php *没有显示任何php包

Question

yum list *php* was not showing any packages. using yum update, the CentOS server went from version 6.3 to 6.6, but i still don't see any php packages with yum list *php*

yum repolist is showing:

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: p3plmirror02.prod.phx3.secureserver.net * epel: dl.fedoraproject.org * extras: p3plmirror02.prod.phx3.secureserver.net * remi: mirrors.mediatemple.net * remi-php55: mirrors.mediatemple.net * remi-safe: mirrors.mediatemple.net * updates: p3plmirror02.prod.phx3.secureserver.net remi remi-php55 base epel extras remi remi-php55 remi-safe updates

what have I messed up? where are the php packages?

Answer 1

Finally found this from googling: the php packages were excluded in /etc/yum.conf. I just edited the line that starts with exclude= and removed php* from that list.
