Here is an outline of what I ran into getting pear installed onto windows. I wanted to wipe my pear clean and reinstall since I haven't realy been using the package manager to put stuff in there. So I renamed my existing pear directory, and followed instructions from pear.php.net to install. Rather than using lynx, I used wget since I already had it. In my particular case, I have php in e:\apps\php421\ since I have multiple versions installed. Shane Issues getting pear installed on windows when NO pear directory exists: Getting wget... http://space.tin.it/computer/hherold/ wget http://pear.php.net/go-pear php go-pear
    BUG: rmdir on line 609??? many warnings output
BUG: Net/SMTP.php not installed, required by Mail/SMTP.php BUG: Net/Socket.php not installed, required by Net/smtp.php BUG: scripts directory not installed, pear.in not available
    Copied pear.in from php cvs to php/pear/scripts
    copied pear.bat from php cvs to php/
    edit pear.bat to reflect correct paths for PHP_BIN and PEAR_PATH
    edit pear.in:
        comment out line with @include_path@
        replace @pear_version@ with 0.9.1
Now 'pear install' will work correctly run 'pear config-show'
BUG: PEAR test directory | test_dir        | c:\php4\pear\tests
    all other paths are correct per the go-pear script settings
    if not the correct path, must reset it.
    'pear config-set test_dir .......\pear\tests'
