Re: [Phpwiki-talk] server shift => wiki problem

[Carsten K. <car...@ma...>]

Hi Tara,

Yes this happened to me too, Jeff explained the problem as written in 
index.php. This error indicates PHPWiki can't find its PEAR libraries.

(I added a couple lines specifically mentioning this error to index.php. 
Probably it should go in the docs too.)

1. Do a search for PEAR.php to find out where it is. On unix-ish systems 
this would be:
    locate PEAR.php
2. Add the path to this file into index.php, something like:
    ini_set('include_path', '.:/usr/local/whatever/share/php');
2. Alternatively you can edit the php.ini (probably at /usr/local/lib/php.
ini) file and add the path in there (if you have root access to the server)
. The advantage of this is that php will be able to find it's PEAR 
libraries even for other non-wiki php software:
    ini_set('include_path', '.:/usr/local/whatever/share/php');

PhpWiki already searches a number of common directories for the PEAR 
libraries, so I'd like to see what directory yours was installed into.

// Part Zero: If PHP needs help in finding where you installed the
//   rest of the PhpWiki code, you can set the include_path here.

// NOTE: phpwiki uses the PEAR library of php code for SQL database
// access.  Your PHP is probably already configured to set include_path
// so that PHP can find the pear code.  If not (or if you change
// include_path here) make sure you include the path to the PEAR
// code in include_path.  (To find the PEAR code on your system, search
// for a file named 'PEAR.php'.   Some common locations are:
//
//   Unixish systems:
//     /usr/share/php
//     /usr/local/share/php
//   Mac OS X:
//     /System/Library/PHP
//
// The above examples are already included by PhpWiki.
// You shouldn't have to change this unless you see a WikiFatalError:
//   lib/FileFinder.php:82: Fatal[256]: DB.php: file not found
//
//ini_set('include_path', '.:/where/you/installed/phpwiki');
