Fix PEAR Installation on WAMP Server

April 09, 2009   Shubhamoy   No comments

Hi Folks,

shubhamoy_wamplogo

Few weeks later I faced a great trouble while installing PEAR on WAMP Server.

The Problem:

The PEAR path is wrongly set to C:\php5\pear automatically than its original path.

The Solution:

  1. Edit every php.ini file, change INCLUDE_PATH to your path where WAMP Server is installed(e.g. C:\WAMP\bin\php\php5\includes).
  2. Now run go-pear.bat, and follow all the instructions. If everything is fine then its OK. You can check it by running http://localhost/phpinfo(). Else if go to Step 3.
  3. Right Click My Computer->Advanced Tab->Environment Variables->Add New User Variable->PHP_PEAR_INCLUDE_PATH->Add new value->The path where PEAR is installed(e.g. C:\WAMP\bin\php\php5\PEAR).
  4. Do post your results soon.

If any step is not clear or you have some doubt then kindly post a comment. Even if you insist then I’ll post thumbnails also.

Running PHP scripts on PC

May 25, 2008   Shubhamoy   No comments

Hi Friends,

I was searching a way to run PHP scripts on my lappy but was unable. Yesterday I got a method of doing that, here goes my method:

  • First of all you need to install Wamp Server (WAMP= Windows Apache MySQL PHP).
  • Its installation is very easy.
  • After the installation. Run Wamp Server.
  • Open your browser and type either http://localhost or 127.0.0.1
  • Then place the PHP scripts in C:\Wamp\www(I guess you have installed it on C: Drive)
  • Now you can run PHP script successfully on your PC.

NOTE:

  • You can define 127.0.0.1 to http://yourname.com in the HOSTS File. Read this.
  • Even you can try XAMPP. It is capable of running Perl scripts also.
  • Even you can try PHP IDE’s also. Click Here.
