You don't need this file, the installer and the whole PEAR is PHP code, which should run out of the box. > The go-pear script just seems to download CVS, and then > 'install' some apps. > > I have pear.bat (is this the equiv of the pear program?) - can pear be > manually installed? Manual theorical steps for having the installer work under Windows: 1) Download from CVS the entire php4/pear tree 2) copy the php4/pear/scripts/pear.bat file to your PATH and edit the file to match your system. 3) run the following commands: c:> cd php4\pear c:> pear install -r php4\pear\package-Archive_Tar.xml c:> pear install -r php4\pear\package-Console_Getopt.xml c:> pear install -r php4\pear\package-PEAR.xml c:> pear install -s php4\pear\packages/XML_RPC-1.0.3.tar This should be enough. Note that we have recently done a lot of work on it, so be sure to download the lastest version. I've just changed a little pear.bat to see if it works better. > > pear.bat crashes with memory access errors. I'd recommend you to try the 4.2.1, we have seen those crashes too on Windows. If they still appears please try to isolate the problem, fill the properly entry in bugs.php.net and tell us about it to see if we can make some workarround while the bug isn't fixed. > install-pear.php requires pear installed? Nop. If you want to test it: 1) Download from CVS the entire php4/pear tree 2) Run: c:> cd php4\pear c:> php -C -f install-pear.php -- package-*.xml c:> php -C -f install-pear.php -- packages\*.tar You can imagine that I haven't tested any thing that I'm commenting so expect some problem somewhere. There is not much more to say on what is needed to install the installer under Windows. Now I guess is the turn for Windows developers to make the installation easier. We are wide open and really interested in having the Windows support. Of course, if nothing of that works, just wait a little to the Web Interface Christian is creating. Tomas V.V.Cox
