Here is how I solved this issue. I didn't use 'go-pear.php', instead I downloaded the packages I needed (including dependencies), created a folder something like 'includes' and copied the PEAR files to this folder. The set the include path: set_include_path('.:' . dirname(__FILE__).'/includes:' . get_include_path()); and that's it. I know that my english sucks so if this isn't clear, email me and I can send you an archive with the dir structure.

I didn't see an answer to this problem in the archives, so here goes. First of all, I do not have shell access to the server, nor can I get it. I have pursued that through my ISP, to no avail. I went through the website documentation to figure out what I needed to do, downloaded and saved go-pear.php, and uploaded it to the web server in a library called install. I created and made 777 directory access for: bin cache data docs PEAR tests Then I proceeded to run the script as a web page. Here's the display that came from it: Starting installation ...
