Probably real easy for those who have done it before, but no hints for first timers here! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-06-02 16:28:07] arnold at bean-it dot nl Where can I find a manual for installing pecl modules. Because i used pear to install both tidy and runkit. Both ware installed succesfully. I've restarted apache, but I'm not able te call functions from either of the packages. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-06-02 08:07:32] arnold at bean-it dot nl Description: ------------ It is not clear that you have to use 'pear install', to install pecl packages. Please state this more clearly on the website. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=4512&edit=1
