I had php 7.4.10 in my centos 7 server but I want to downgrade to php 7.3 I uninstalled the php 7.4 and tried this code.

wget https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
wget http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm
rpm -Uvh remi-release-7.rpm epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
yum install yum-utils 
yum-config-manager --enable remi-php73
yum install php php-opcache php-gd php-curl php-mysqlnd
yum update -y
php -v

no matter what I do, I see that php 7.4.11 is installed. What am I doing wrong?

yum install installs the latest PHP available. Since you have newer PHP 7.4 already installed, yum keeps what it has because it sees PHP 7.3 in the enabled repositories.

To downgrade, you can try:

yum downgrade php*

  • Thanks, how can I downgrade to 7.3? Commented Oct 1, 2020 at 11:56
  • first ti me it downgraded to 7.4.10, second time it downgraded to 7.3 Commented Oct 1, 2020 at 12:01
  • @DavSev, the first time it downgraded to 7.4 still because I guess you have its repo enabled. 7.4 repo should be disabled with yum-config-manager --enable remi-php74 if you want to be on PHP 7.3. Commented Oct 1, 2020 at 18:32
