Without >reading the right posts in the pear-dev archives one could get lost. Well, Urs (urs@circle.ch) and me have been working on the win32 specific part of the go-pear script. Please download it from the link below and test it. It's working perfectly here... You'll find the file at www.gordimer.net/go-pear.php.txt. Please download it and run it from your php binaries directory (like if you'd use go-pear.bat). Things fixed: - look for php.ini first in the directory where go-pear.php is located (usually php binary directory) - during the installation, display explicit paths and not php variable names - make necessary changes in pear.bat - move pear.in into php installation directory and call it pear.in as it can't be called pear there - some other small changes Still open: - temporary files are not deleted after installation - installation not working on other drives than the one where the temporary directory is (see bug 21619 and related).
