By submitting PHP Resources you own, or know of, you'll help us build the largest PHP Resource website on the net. Please double check that your resource doesn't already exist before you submit it!!. We thank you for helping make this a better website.
After you have downloaded and installed PHP, you have to manually
execute the batch file located in e.g.
c:\php\go-pear.bat. The setup will ask you
some questions and afterwards the PEAR Package Manager will be
installed in the path, which you have specified during installation.
Finally you have to add that installation path to your
PATH environment. Either do this manually (Start >
Control Panel > System > Environment) or run (double-click) the
newly generated PEAR_ENV.reg that's now found in the
PHP source directory. After that you can access the PEAR Package Manager
by running the command pear in a Windows Command
Prompt.
To update your PEAR installation, request
http://pear.php.net/go-pear
in your browser and save the output to a local
file go-pear.php. You can then run
php go-pear.php
in a Windows Command Prompt to start the update process.
Note:
After changing php.ini, you need to restart
your web server.
When using PHP >= 4.3.0, the PEAR Package Manager is already
installed unless one has used the ./configure
option --without-pear.
If one uses a version of PHP that is supplied by Unix/Linux/BSD
distributors it may be necessary to manually install PEAR. Users
should consult the documentation for the respective distribution
in this case.
For all versions prior to 4.3.0 or if you want to re-install the
Package Manager, you can use the following provisional way:
$ lynx -source http://pear.php.net/go-pear | php
Note:
Some Linux distributions (e.g. Redhat) seem to be using
links instead of lynx
as the name for their command line browser. If this is the case
for you, you need to change the above line correspondingly.
Note:
You can also save http://pear.php.net/go-pear as go-pear.php
and run it with:
If you are running your site at a web hosting provider with no
direct access to the server (via local logins, Telnet or SSH), you
can use the PEAR Installer using the Web Frontend.
Go to http://pear.php.net/go-pear and save as
go-pear.php.
Copy go-pear.php to
your server and open the corresponding URL in your browser, for
example http://example.com/pear/go-pear.php.
