#25350 [Fbk->Csd]: go-pear.bat fails when directory prefix has whitespace

ID: 25350 User updated by: cjbj at hotmail dot com Reported By: cjbj at hotmail dot com -Status: Feedback +Status: Closed Bug Type: PEAR related Operating System: Windows 2000 PHP Version: 4.3.3 New Comment: - I unzipped php-4.3.3-Win32.zip and moved it to c:\Program Files\php-4.3.3-Win32 - Renamed PEAR to PEAR_old - Downloaded http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5-win32-latest.zip - Copied the whole PEAR directory to c:\Program Files\php-4.3.3-Win32 - Started a DOS window - Changed directory to c:\Program Files\php-4.3.3-Win32 - Ran "go-pear". It completed successfully and the disk layout seems as expected. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-09-01 22:37:28] cellog@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5-win32-latest.zip There are many fixes in CVS for this problem. Note that there is a straightforward typo in pear\go-pear.php which is known, but hasn't been committed yet for some reason. You should do a text search for "exee" and replace it with "exe" please check out php-src/pear and copy the contents to C:\program files\php-4.3.3-Win32\pear and try again. Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-09-01 22:05:54] cjbj at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ - I downloaded php-4.3.3-Win32.zip for Windows 2000 The go-pear.php in 4.3.3 is version 1.48. - I unzipped and moved to c:\Program Files\php-4.3.3-Win32 - I configured it and Apache 1.3.28 to run. I can access basic .php files e.g. a simple phpinfo() script - I opened a DOS window and changed directory to c:\Program Files\php-4.3.3-Win32 - I ran "go-pear.bat". Expected result: ---------------- Expected this to install PEAR, or to exit gracefully when the invalid path was detected. Actual result: -------------- The top of the screen shows: Welcome to go-pear! Go-pear will install the 'pear' command and all the files needed by it. This command is your tool for PEAR installation and maintenance. Go-pear also lets you download and install the PEAR packages bundled with PHP: DB, Net_Socket, Net_SMTP, Mail, XML_Parser, phpUnit. If you wish to abort, press Control-C now, or press Enter to continue: HTTP proxy (http://user:password@proxy.myhost.com:port), or Enter for none:: http://myvalidproxy.mydomain/ 'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. PEAR does not appear to be configured. The result seems to be three new empty directories 'data', 'docs' and 'tests' in c:/Program Files/php-4.3.3-Win32/PEAR. - I then copied go-pear.php to an Apache-acccessible directory. - I filled in the form using the path c:\Program Files\php-4.3.3-Win32 for the installation prefix, and c:\program files\php-4.3.3-Win32\cli as the CLI path. - I clicked "install" - I expected this to work - I did get a useful (but annoying) message ERROR(S): Installation prefix: Spaces are not allowed in pathes. Please choose another path. php.exe path, optional (CLI command tools): Spaces are not allowed in pathes. Please choose another path. Spaces are valid in Windows file and directory names. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=25350&edit=1
