Are you actually going to use the graphic user interface version of the program, or just the daemon? Qt is only needed for GUIs written in it, and centos "servers" typically aren't installed with an xwindow system.
You do not need to do any chown commands on Bitcoin, especially giving it root. That would be a bad idea. You can simply uncompress it in a user home directory and run bin/bitcoind.
Additionally, 0.9.3+ is compiled with QT5.2, you should be using that version or higher on your system, the instructions are old.
To install Qt, this is going to be too difficult for you if you don't know how to run a program:

Instead include this repo using instructions from this message:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/fedora-kde/2013-March/012437.html
It has qt5-qtbase-* in the testing repo, which should get the job done http://download.kdeforge.net/kde-redhat/redhat/6/x86_64/RPMS.testing/
Topic: CentOS Bitcoin QT Installation (Read 1686 times)
Hello guys,
I've got a problem while trying to install the Bitcoin QT Client on my CentOS Server.
I have followed exactly this guide: http://tutorialforlinux.com/2014/02/10/how-to-install-bitcoin-qt-client-on-centos-6-x-3264bit-linux/
The first step (Installing Required QT4 Library) went fine and while I was trying to use su -c "chown -R root:root /tmp/bitcoin* && mv /tmp/bitcoin* /opt/" for installation then, it seems like the SSH console is not able to access the folder where the data is stored in: chown: cannot access `/tmp/bitcoin': No such file or directory
Here are some pics:

Thanks for your help!
If someone trusted could install the client for me I would give a donation. Please pm me.
