There is another way to fix this issue and I didn’t write about it because I couldn’t make it work at first.
Apparently I was missing one line

First you will need to find out where libexpat is located on your server, it’s probably here:
/usr/lib

To find out for sure, open this folder (/usr/lib) and look for the file:
libexpat.so

If you can’t find it, log in as root via SSH and enter:
whereis libexpat.so

This should list the folder in which libexpat is located.

After all this you will need to compile PHP to use libexpat instead of libxml, so go to:
/var/cpanel/easy/apache/rawopts/

And create a file and name it “all_php5″ (no quotes), if there is a file with this name edit it and add these lines to the end of it:
–with-expat=builtin
–with-libexpat-dir=/usr/lib

(lines start with two dashes “-” that are not showing up here for some reason)
Remember that depending on where libexpat is located on your server you might need to edit the second line.

Now compile Apache and everything should work fine!

When you parse XML with PHP and libxml 2.7.0, all HTML entities were stripped out and this annoying bug messed up a lot of things and no one seems to care enough to fix this.

This bug is also reported here:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=45996
http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=9359&nbn=2

From reading these few resources, I knew I had to downgrade to an older version of libxml but since I’m not very good at Linux I had no idea how to.

But I finally figured this out and here is how to do it with WHM/cPanel:

First you will have to install an older version of libxml, I installed libxml 2.6.30.
You will need an SSH client and you will have to login to your server with root, I use Putty:
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
Download it, run it, enter the IP address of your server, enter root and enter your password.
Then do:

cd /opt

mkdir libxml

cd libxml

wget http://xmlsoft.org/sources/libxml2-2.6.30.tar.gz

tar xvzf libxml2-2.6.30.tar.gz

cd libxml2-2.6.30

./configure –bindir=/opt/libxml/ –sbindir=/opt/libxml/ –libexecdir=/opt/libxml/ –datadir=/opt/libxml/ –sysconfdir=/opt/libxml/ –sharedstatedir=/opt/libxml/ –libdir=/opt/libxml/ –includedir=/opt/libxml/ –oldincludedir=/opt/libxml/

make && make install

Now you will need to update yum.conf to prevent it from updating libxml back, so edit:
/etc/yum.conf

And find the line that starts with:
exclude=

And add libxml* to the end of it so this line should look something like this:
exclude=apache* bind-chroot courier* dovecot* exim* httpd* mod_ssl* mysql* nsd* php* proftpd* pure-ftpd* spamassassin* squirrelmail* libxml*

Now we will have to let WHM know that we want to compile PHP with this new libxml path so go to:
/var/cpanel/easy/apache/rawopts/

There might be a file there named: “all_php5″ (no quotes) if there is edit it if there is not create it and add these lines to the end of it:
–with-libxml-dir=/opt/libxml
–with-libxml-dir=/opt/libxml/

Now go ahead and build Apache and PHP using:
Main >> Software >> Apache Update

You should be all set.

Please note:
1 - Do this on your own risk.
2 - I’m not very good at Linux so please let me know if there is an easier method.
3 - This worked great on my CentOS.
4 - If you have never used WHM’s Apache Update, go ahead and read about it first.

Here is how to install ffmpeg:

1 - Create a file named “dag.repo” (no quotes) in “/etc/yum.repos.d”
2 - Copy and paste these lines in it:

[dag]
name=Dag RPM Repository for Red Hat Enterprise Linux
baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag
gpgcheck=0
enabled=1

You will need a newline at the end of the file.

3 - Then run “yum install ffmpeg ffmpeg-devel” (no quotes)

This should install it with no issues, note that I set gpgcheck=0, if you search for it you will see a lot of people are suggesting: gpgcheck=1 which yields to something like:
warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID X

Here is how to fix this:

(Assume the name of my script is myscript)

1 - Copy your script into /etc/init.d folder
2 - cd /etc/init.d
3 - chmod +x myscript
4 - Add these lines, including #, right after #!/bin/bash or #!/bin/sh:

# chkconfig: 2345 95 20
# description: Some description
# What your script does (not sure if this is necessary though)
# processname: myscript

5 - chkconfig –level 2345 myscript on

<?php
 
	set_time_limit(900);
 
	delete_folder(dirname(__FILE__) .'/');
 
	function delete_folder($folder) {
		$folder_contents = get_folder_contents($folder);
		if ($folder_contents) {
			foreach ($folder_contents as $__content) {
				// echo $__content['item'] .'<br />';
				if (is_dir($__content['item']))
					delete_folder($__content['item']);
				else
					unlink($__content['item']);
			}
		}
		rmdir($folder);
	}
 
	function get_folder_contents($folder) {
		if( !is_dir($folder) ) { 
			return false;
		}
		$return_array = array();
		$count		  = 0;
		if( $dh = opendir($folder) ) {
			while( ($file = readdir($dh)) !== false ) {
				if( $file == '.' || $file == '..' ) continue;													
				$return_array[$count]['item']	= $folder .$file .(is_dir($folder .$file) ? DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR : '');
 
				$count++;				
			}
			closedir($dh);
		}
		return $return_array;
	}
 
?>

Put it *inside* the folder that you want to delete and run it.
Be very careful when using this code, I warned you! Don’t use this if you don’t know any PHP.

I thought it was great but we have so many problems now with big accounts and I don’t know why they offer this problematic feature.
