[PHP] Missing pear executable
Hello, I've been installing php-4.4.0 and php-5.0.5, and it both cases I can't find the pear executable in the install directory. For instance: # ls /usr/local/php-5.0.5/bin/ php php-config phpize IIRC, pear executable (ie. the package manager) used to be bundled with PHP. In fact, I think a while a go I compiled from the daily snapshot and I got the pear executable. My configure options have not changed since then (look below). Any help ? Thank you Reuben D. B. -- here is my configure line: ./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local/php-5.0.5 \ --with-config-file-path=/etc \ --with-config-file-scan-dir=/etc/php.d \ --enable-force-cgi-redirect \ --disable-debug --enable-pic \ --disable-rpath --enable-inline-optimization \ --with-bz2 \ --with-db4=/usr \ --with-curl \ --with-exec-dir=/usr/bin \ --with-freetype-dir=/usr \ --with-png-dir=/usr \ --with-gd=shared \ --enable-gd-native-ttf \ --without-gdbm \ --with-gettext \ --with-ncurses=shared \ --with-gmp \ --with-iconv \ --with-jpeg-dir=/usr \ --with-openssl \ --with-png \ --with-xml \ --with-expat-dir=/usr \ --with-dom=shared,/usr \ --with-dom-xslt=/usr \ --with-dom-exslt=/usr \ --with-xmlrpc=shared \ --with-pcre-regex=/usr \ --with-zlib \ --with-layout=GNU \ --enable-bcmath \ --enable-exif \ --enable-ftp \ --enable-magic-quotes \ --enable-sockets \ --enable-sysvsem \ --enable-sysvshm \ --enable-track-vars \ --enable-trans-sid \ --enable-yp \ --enable-wddx \ --with-pear=/usr/share/pear \ --with-kerberos \ --with-ldap=shared \ --with-pgsql=/usr/local/postgresql-7.4.8 \ --enable-ucd-snmp-hack \ --enable-memory-limit \ --enable-shmop \ --enable-calendar \ --enable-dbx \ --enable-dio \ --enable-mbstring=shared \ --enable-mbstr-enc-trans \ --enable-mbregex \ --with-mime-magic=/usr/share/file/magic.mime \ --with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs \ --with-oci8-instant-client=/usr/local/oracle/instantclient_10_2 \ --enable-soap -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Missing pear executable
I believe you're right, they used to include it with PHP. I believe the PEAR docs even say something about it being included. Maybe they don't anymore so you have to go to the PEAR site to get the latest installer. That way they don't get people using an older installer/package manager that may not be the latest update. *shrug* Either way, the info I sent earlier should get you up and running in no time.
