I have installed php, mysql, httpd on my vps. But when I try upgrade php via yum I get the following error.

[root@ns1 home]# yum --enablerepo=remi update php

Package(s) php available, but not installed.
No Packages marked for Update

Then I am trying to install it with the following command but I get a "Segmentation fault".

[root@ns1 home]# yum --enablerepo=remi install php"

Yum update without a package is also not working:

[root@ns1 home]# yum update

    Yes, I do understand, that you have a problem with yum. What happens, when you just runyum upgrade? Commented Dec 20, 2015 at 17:28

    Why do you have double quotes at the end of the command? Commented Dec 21, 2015 at 19:43

It has been suggested here that it may be a lack of memory on the VPS and to try to resolve the issue by either shutting down running services or add a swap file. Then run 

package-cleanup --cleandupes

prior to running other updates. One comment stated that stopping httpd service to do the yum updates worked.
