Hi All, I'm a PHP intermediate, but a newbie with PEAR. Trying to get started using PEAR but having problems: i.e. When trying to use DB in a script: [code] require_once('DB.php'); [/code] but I get this error: [code]Fatal error: Undefined class name 'pear' in /usr/lib/php/DB.php on line 540[/code] That would tell me that DB is being found, but a dependency for DB (ostensibly PEAR) is not. So I go to command line and type: [code]pear package-dependencies DB[/code] and get: [code]Cannot open 'DB' for parsing[/code] I don't know exactly what that means but it doesn't sound good. (I tried running the same command as sudo). But when I do: [code]pear list[/code] everything seems peachy: [code] Installed packages, channel pear.php.net: ========================================= Package Version State Archive_Tar 1.3.1 stable Console_Getopt 1.2 stable DB 1.7.6 stable DB_Pager 0.7 stable DB_Table 1.2.1 stable Date 1.4.6 stable HTML_Common 1.2.2 stable HTML_QuickForm 3.2.5 stable HTML_Template_IT 1.1.3 stable HTTP 1.4.0 stable Mail 1.1.9 stable Net_SMTP 1.2.8 stable Net_Socket 1.0.6 stable Net_UserAgent_Detect 2.1.0 stable PEAR 1.4.7 stable PHPUnit 1.3.2 stable Pager 2.3.6 stable XML_Parser 1.2.7 stable XML_RPC 1.4.5 stable [/code] and no problems installing new modules either. It's just that when I try to run DB in a script, it can't seem to "find" the base PEAR class? So then just for kicks I add a second include, so it's like this: [code] require_once('PEAR.php'); require_once('DB.php'); [/code] which gives me this error: [code] Fatal error: Class db_error: Cannot inherit from undefined class pear_error in /usr/lib/php/DB.php on line 868 [/code] So now it's got the pear module but not the pear_error class? Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
