$ apt-cache policy php-pear php-pear: Installed: 5.5.4+dfsg-1+debphp.org~precise+1 Candidate: 5.5.4+dfsg-1+debphp.org~precise+1 Version table: *** 5.5.4+dfsg-1+debphp.org~precise+1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ondrej/php5/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.8 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates/main amd64 Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-security/main amd64 Packages 5.3.10-1ubuntu3 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages With PHP 5.4, ini files were stored in /etc/php5/mods-available/ and symlinked into a global ini directory /etc/php5/conf.d/, which inturn was symlinked as the conf.d directory in all the flavors of PHP. When PEAR installed an extension it would add the file to /etc/php5/conf.d/ and so would be avaliable regardless of how you ran php (cli, cgi, fpm). With PHP 5.5 there no longer is a /etc/php5/conf.d/ directory, modules are still installed into /etc/php5/mods-available/ but are directly symlinked into the flavor conf.d directory. When PEAR installs a module it either fails to create the ini file if the directory does not exist, or if you create the directory it will create the ini fine but not symlink it into the php flavors. I would expect either PHP 5.5. to use the old directory structure so that PEAR modules are loaded as expected, or for PEAR to create the base conf.d directory and symlink its own inis into the php flavors. ** Affects: php5 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to php5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1238160 Title: pear puts config in wrong directory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/+bug/1238160/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
