I’m trying to install phpmyadmin on CentOS 7 using this guide – https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-secure-phpmyadmin-with-nginx-on-a-centos-7-server, but it is not working. When I run:
yum install phpmyadmin
I get the following dependency errors:
–> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: php-tcpdf-6.1.1-1.el6.noarch (epel) Requires: php-tidy Error: Package: php-mcrypt-5.3.3-3.el6.x86_64 (epel) Requires: php(api) = 20090626 Installed: php-common-5.4.16-23.el7_0.3.x86_64 (@updates) php(api) = 20100412-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-21.el7.x86_64 (base) php(api) = 20100412-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-23.el7_0.x86_64 (updates) php(api) = 20100412-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-23.el7_0.1.x86_64 (updates) php(api) = 20100412-64 Error: Package: php-mcrypt-5.3.3-3.el6.x86_64 (epel) Requires: php(zend-abi) = 20090626 Installed: php-common-5.4.16-23.el7_0.3.x86_64 (@updates) php(zend-abi) = 20100525-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-21.el7.x86_64 (base) php(zend-abi) = 20100525-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-23.el7_0.x86_64 (updates) php(zend-abi) = 20100525-64 Available: php-common-5.4.16-23.el7_0.1.x86_64 (updates) php(zend-abi) = 20100525-64 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
If I try to install the dependencies, such as php-tidy and php-mcrypt, I get more errors:
yum install php-tidy “No package php-tidy available”
yum install php-mcrypt Error: Package: php-mcrypt-5.3.3-3.el6.x86_64 (epel) Requires: php(api) = 20090626 Installed: php-common-5.4.16-23.el7_0.3.x86_64 (@updates) php(api) = 20100412-64
yum install php Package php-5.4.16-23.el7_0.3.x86_64 already installed and latest version Nothing to do

Try this:
This should install with all the dependencies.
I’d recommend the CentOS plugin protectbase this plugin will help when dealing with multiple 3rd party repos or just EPEL/RPMForge
You can use “yum --disablerepo=[reponame] …” but that’s a single use option if you’d like to protect your system continuously then I’d highly recommend the “protectbase”
“yum install yum-plugins-protectbase”
Then add “protect=1” on the repos you’d want to protect. Aka CentOS-Base And add “protect=0” to epel.repo this should solve most common conflicts when dealing with 3rd party repositories.
I created a more in-depth guide on my blog here Dealing with multiple repositories on CentOS 4/5/6/7
yum --enablerepo=remi,remi-php56 install php-mcrypt yum --enablerepo=remi,remi-php56 update yum update Try this and tell me it worked or not
