Answer 1

Check which package is installed (which provider) and provides the stack, then use the same namespace.

• Webtatic uses php56w-*
• IUS uses php56u-*
• remi-safe (SCL packages) use php56-php-*
• remi-php56 simply use php-*
• other providers can use something else

As you need pdo_mysql driver, simply

yum install <namespace>-pdo_mysql

(using the ext name, yum will find the correct package name which provides this ext).

Also check you don't have any "exclude" lines in the yum configuration (such as the ones provided in altered cpanel distributions)
