If any one have any clues, Please help me, I am about to give up on Fedora.

why not just `yum install php` ?

[jattoo]

I have tried that but I always got the following:
Added 37 new packages, deleted 0 old in 24.81 seconds
Parsing package install arguments
Nothing to do
All I want to do is istall a home webserver just for learning and I have been following one of the post on the forum by someone, but I could not get php to install right.

The "Nothing to do" message means that you already have php installed. What is the output of

rpm -q php

?

This is what I got

php-5.0.4-10.4, I guess its not configure then
