RE: [PEAR] go-pear error on windows

hello, more pear-on-win oddities: when i run go-pear, it seems that pear.bat is installed into c:\php\scripts, but not into c:\php as indicated in the go-pear output. then, whether i try to run it in place or move it to c:\php and try from there, nothing happens. just a pause, then command prompt returns. same for all commands. i also noticed this: even though i specify c:\php as the prefix dir, DB and XML_Parser install their test scripts into c:\php4\pear\tests. thanks, dietrich > -----Original Message----- > From: Dietrich Ayala [mailto:dietrich@ganx4.com] > Sent: Friday, August 23, 2002 1:31 PM > To: pear-general@lists.php.net > Subject: [PEAR] go-pear error on windows > > > hello, > > When running go-pear w/ php4.2.2 on win2k, i get this error: "Warning: failed to create > c:\php\pear".
