Topic: php upgrade problems

[Greg Zartman]

I'm hoping one of the php gurus can shed some light on an ongoing issue.  I've attempted to upgrade SME 5.6 php to a more current version.  After installing Dan Brown's php-4.3.2 rpms I get the following errors in /var/log/messages.  Note that I did install the pear Log package and expanded the /etc/php.ini template.  

Thanks.

Further to my first post, I seem to be having a problem with pear (not sure if this helps shed some light on the issue):

Jul 15 08:45:24 eccserver php: PHP Fatal error:  Failed opening required 'PEAR.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in /usr/bin/pear on line 27


I get this error log entry in /var/log/message when I attempt to execute /usr/bin/pear

Thanks

My bad, I left out a step.  You need to change the include_path in php.ini to '.:/usr/share/pear'.

[Greg Zartman]

Thanks Dan.  That seems to have solved 90% of the issue.   Is there another path varable that  tells pear which packages are installed.  When I do a pear list-installed, I get nothing.  However, when I list the contents of /usr/share/pear I show several pear libs.


Thanks.

OK, I solved the problem:

Seems that a few pear libraries used in Horde 2.0 don't exists anymore; the major one being Crypt_HCEMD5.  When I upgraded to the the current php, I lost the Crypt_HCEMD5 package.   An upgrade to Horde 2.2+ should solve the problem.

Regrards,
