PHP should not be installed via yum/rpm in Centos as the version distributed is very old. To fix it follow these steps:
- cd /usr/src/php-5.2.11
- make install
- service httpd restart
Replace 5.2.11 with the version in your system. These steps will re-install the custom PHP installation in your VPS. If you have any doubts, feel free to open a support ticket and we will help you.
