Thank you VERY much! This tut was amazing, and helped me out more than you can imagine! My godaddy hosting was transferred to a linux shared host. Since I came from a windows server, neither of the php.ini or .htaccess files existed (I cleared my root directory prior to the migration). Incidentally, I also didn’t have a PEAR install and all my scripts were failing. With this tut, I was up and running within 10 minutes! My eternal gratitude goes out to you guys.

I just pulled up the pear-go.php file in my browser and got a ton of errors. Any help on those? Do I need to post what they are or can I post the site here so someone can see it?

Thanks for this tutorial – got me 99% of the way there.

Just wanted to point out that when I opened my brand new PHP5 account, the file which was created was php.ini and I couldn’t get PEAR to work, despite updating it.

I had to rename php.ini to php5.ini and then it worked beautifully.

If I’d read more carefully I’d probably have gotten the answer here but wanted to add an answer for skim-readers like me.

READ Mark’s up about 4 posts!!!

Dear GOD I spent all day wrestling this, and that ‘directional quote’ problem was all I was having!! Delete those quotes in your text editor and replace them with the generics!!

Careful, if you install the web front end and you are on the root fo the site and you already have a working site with a homepage, the front end will wipe out your homepage. I didn’t know that, luckily there was a backup there.
