RE: [PEAR] Installing of PEAR packages on windows

Ok, apparently you use an outdated version of the pear command. I recommend you clean you install. Here is a post i made a while ago explaining the steps i had to follow to install the pear command under NT. Note that PEAR version is now 1.0b1 and not 0.91-dev anymore. 1. install a fresh php 4.2.3 2. copy go-pear locally 3. run c:\php\php-cli c:\php\go-pear installing files under c:\php (default) Warning: failed to create c:\php\pear install ok: PEAR 0.91-dev install ok: Archive_Tar 0.9 install ok: Console_Getopt 1.0 install ok: XML_RPC 1.0.3 install ok: DB 1.3 install ok: Net_Socket 1.0.1 install ok: Net_SMTP 1.0 install ok: Mail 1.0.1 install ok: XML_Parser 1.0 note: the script created c:\php4\pear\tests 4. add c:\php\pear to the include-path 5. try it C:\PHP>pear list PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function: getoptions() in c:\php\pear\scripts\pear.in on line 35 6. update to latest pear.in (1.64) from CVS 7. set register_argc_argv = on in php.ini 8. pear config-show shows that it considers pear installed under c:\php4\pear C:\PHP>pear config-show CONFIGURATION: ============== +---------------------+-----------------+------------------------+ | PEAR executables | bin_dir | c:\php4 | | directory | | | | PEAR documentation | doc_dir | c:\php4\pear\docs | | directory | | | | PHP extension | ext_dir | c:\php4 | | directory | | | | PEAR directory | php_dir | c:\php4\pear | | PEAR data directory | data_dir | c:\php4\pear\data | | PEAR test directory | test_dir | c:\php4\pear\tests | | HTTP Proxy Server | http_proxy | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | | Address | | | | PEAR server | master_server | pear.php.net | | PEAR password (for | password | <not set> | | maintainers) | | | | PEAR username (for | username | <not set> | | maintainers) | | | | Preferred Package | preferred_state | stable | | State | | | | Unix file mask | umask | <not set> | | Debug Log Level | verbose | 1 | +---------------------+-----------------+------------------------+ 9.
