If you did not remove the previous versions prior to installing the new ones then you have probably fudged things up a bit. More importantly, when you install or reinstall php you must also make changes to apache. Depending on how you install or compile php, you may even have to recompile apache.
My guess is that apache, php and myswl were all installed as redhat rpms initially. If that is the case then in order to install a newer rpm of php you would need to remove the old one and install the new one. That may or may not work, depending on whether the rpm scripts do all the correct updates to apache. If you want to install php4.11 (or better yet 4.2.0-dev) from source then you have two choices: You can remove your apache rpm and install php and apache according the the directions in the manual with the --with-apache option, or You can compile php with the --with-apxs option and follow the directions for getting php to load as a shared module.
