Solution 1

firstly open /etc/yum.conf file. Find exclude line and erase php* command, then, save the file.

Then, 'yum install php-soap' command should work.

Worked for me :)

I think that remi repo is what you are looking for.

Tried this:
```
yum install php-soap
```
Says:

No package php-soap available.

Then tried this:
```
yum --enablerepo=centosplus install php-soap
```
Still same sh!t. Tried this:
```
rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm
```
Still no luck. Guys, where's the repo that contains the needed package?

The server is at vps.net btw...

remove dot at the begining "extension='/usr/lib64/php/modules/soap.so'" after that check with php -m if the module is loaded
