Just so there is something useful for others to view, here is a quick tutorial on how to setup PEAR on WAMP.


If the file go-pear.phar is not on your system you can get it from here

Create a new folder c:\wamp\bin\php\php.x.y.z\PEAR ( I like a UPPER case name hers but it does not have to be that way )
Get go-pear.phar from [pear.php.net]
And save it into the php.x.y.z folder

Then you have to make sure you have the php.exe file on the windows PATH
from the command line do this :

>path=%path%;c:\wamp\bin\php\phpx.y.z

Alternatively, I have a batch file which I save into a fodler that is always on my windows path, lets call it php-command-line.bat and I add this to that file

path=%path%;c:\wamp\bin\php\php5.3.17;c:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.5.28\bin
php -v

I can then start a command window anytime I like and just keyin >php-command-line and I have access to the php.exe in any folder I may wish to code up and run some php CLI source code.

>php go-pear.phar

D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11>php PEAR\go-pear.phar

Are you installing a system-wide PEAR or a local copy?
(system|local) [system] : l
Please confirm local copy by typing 'yes' : yes

Below is a suggested file layout for your new PEAR installation.  To
change individual locations, type the number in front of the
directory.  Type 'all' to change all of them or simply press Enter to
accept these locations.

 1. Installation base ($prefix)                   : D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11
 2. Temporary directory for processing            : D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11\tmp
 3. Temporary directory for downloads             : D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11\tmp
 4. Binaries directory                            : D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11

******************************************************************************
WARNING!  The include_path defined in the currently used php.ini does not
contain the PEAR PHP directory you just specified:
<D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11\pear>
If the specified directory is also not in the include_path used by
your scripts, you will have problems getting any PEAR packages working.


Would you like to alter php.ini <D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11\php.ini>? [Y/n] : n

Please look over your php.ini file to make sure
D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11\pear is in your include_path.
Current include path           : .;c:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11\PEAR
Configured directory           : D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11\pear
Currently used php.ini (guess) : D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11\php.ini
Press Enter to continue:

** WARNING! Old version found at D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11, please remove it or be sure to use the new d:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11\pear.bat command

The 'pear' command is now at your service at d:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.11\pear.bat

TEST THAT IS WORKS
