Re: Pear Installation Problems

Hello Charles, Try to double-click on C:\php4\PEAR_ENV.reg to import the new environment settings to the registry. Maybe it requires a reboot too.

The Pear installation creates the pear.ini file and dumps it in a new dir <c:\php4\pear.ini>, is this correct? Dunno if it's correct but it's there for me too.

I am trying to install Pear on Windows Apache 1.3.26 / PHP 4.35. When I try and run the go-pear command from the dos prompt all seems fine until after the install has completed and then I get the following output: - WARNING! The include path defined in the currectly used php.ini does not contain the PEAR PHP directory you just specified. <c:\Php\pear> If the specified directory is also not in the include_path used by your scripts, you will have problems getting any PEAR packages working.

Current include path:     .;c:\php4\pear

I then run pear from from the command line and get the following: - PHP_PEAR_INSTALL_DIR is not set correctly. Please fix it using your enviromental variable or modify the default value in pear.bat. The current value is: ECHO is off. Thanks in advance. From: Charlie Collins Email: charliecollins@ayrmer.co.uk
