PHP Pear Installation /usr/share/pear

[jonesyp]

Hi,

I have installed the LAMP server with 'sudo tasksel install lamp-server' and installed 'PHP-PEAR' but I have no folder 'usr/share/pear'.

I am trying to follow a tutorial on the zend framework and it expects to see it in this place. Can you help?

I am on Ubuntu 9.10. The actual tutorial I was following was for 9.04. Will this make a difference?

Kind regards

Just make the folder:

sudo mkdir /usr/share/pear/

Thanks. But the folder would still be empty so that may not help.

A lnk to the tutorial you're trying to follow would help. ;)

Hi, Thanks for the reply. The tutorial is at

http://www.howtoforge.com/basic-web-server-on-ubuntu-9.04-with-zend-framework

Its about have way down the page when you are looking at php.ini

nano /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

The example shows a path of

/usr/share/php5:/usr/share/pear

When I try and run the zend server demos it complains becuase it can not find /usr/share/pear

Looking around it seems to have been installed in /usr/php/PEAR

Then just change the setting to /usr/share/php5:/usr/php/PEAR

OK, thanks. I will give it a go. DOes anyone know why Ubuntu does not install Pear in the default location?

Because Ubuntu and Debian like to make their own standards. They think it is a better idea.

Hi,

Has any other user got a more technical anser please. I can not see why Ubuntu would install php.ini with /usr/share/pear, then install it in a different folder. Thanks
