The one you're trying to install is listed as beta -- thus the error which specificaly contains the solution: > Error > > Failed to download pear/Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer within preferred state > "stable", latest release is version 0.9.1, stability "beta", use > "channel://pear.php.net/Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer-0.9.1" to install > Cannot initialize 'Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer', invalid or missing package > file is says use "channel://pear.php.net/Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer-0.9.1" so "pear install ..." that to force it to install the beta package. -c
