rpm -Uvh http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-5.rpm

yum --enablerepo=remi update php php-*

Hence issue with mysql came ...

file /etc/my.cnf from install of mysql-libs-5.5.27-1.el5.remi.x86_64 conflicts with file from package mysql-5.0.77-4.el5_5.3.i386

So, Take backup of mysql

mysqldump -u root -psys_0510 --all-databases > all_database.sql

mysqldump -u root -psys_0510 --all-databases --compatible=mysql40 > versioncompatible-all_databases.sql
