You can either symlink the php5 directory to php under /usr/lib64 
(although this doesn't work if /usr/lib64/php already exists):

ln -s php5 /usr/lib64/php

or, you can edit your php.ini (usually under /etc or /etc/php), changing 
the following variable (but if any configuration overwrites this value, 
you're back to square one):

extension_dir = /path/to/extensions
