ok here goes. Original install of pear was with php windows binary. It installed the pear base. downloaded the needed packages and used the command line installer. Put the files in C:\php4\pear, not on the D drive where php is installed. Cut and pasted the directorys and files to the correct and things appeared to work, however when I installed a package that had dependencies, it failed saying the dependies were not there. From what I have read there are XML files used during package install and the only attribute I can find in there is "baseinstalldir". What config file contains this? Tried reinstalling pear with go-pear as someone suggested but got a failed to write error. Can someone help me either fix and configure existing win binary or tell me what settings I need to change to get go-pear working and other packages installed pear.bat looks like this: set PHP_PATH=d:\progra~1\php4 set PEAR_INSTALL_DIR=d:\progra~1\php4\pear set PEAR_EXTENSION_DIR=d:\progra~1\php4\extensions set PEAR_DOC_DIR=d:\progra~1\php4\pear\docs REM ------------------- set DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR=\ go-pear session: Downloading package: PEAR.............ok Downloading package: Archive_Tar......ok Downloading package: Console_Getopt....ok Downloading package: XML_RPC..........ok Downloading package: Pager............ok Downloading package: HTML_Template_IT....ok Downloading package: Net_UserAgent_Detect....ok Downloading package: PEAR_Frontend_Web....ok Bootstrapping: PEAR...................ok Bootstrapping: Archive_Tar............ok Bootstrapping: Console_Getopt.........ok Downloading package: DB...............ok Downloading package: Net_Socket.......ok Downloading package: Net_SMTP.........ok Downloading package: Mail.............ok Downloading package: XML_Parser.......ok Extracting installer..................ok failed to write \Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\go-pear\PEAR\data\PEAR\.tmppackage.dtd
