Hello,
I am attempting to install a product and I receive the following error messages listed below.

How do I set XAMPP (1.6.2) on windows xp up so that it can find the PEAR modules?

I've been looking at the forums for hours and am either missing something or can not find the information.

Thanks

George

That's working by default.

Warning: include_once(): Failed opening 'include/db.php' for inclusion

Your script is wrong. Like you can read in the manual for this class, the normal way to include this class is:

Code: Select all

require_once 'DB.php';

and not "include_once 'include/db.php';".

BTW:
Maybe your forum have it's own db-class and there is a directory missing in your forum installation?

P.S. Why would I want to re-write a gpl product? Which is what you are asking me to do.

(include_path='.;C:\xampp\php\PEAR:C:\xampp\htdocs\b2')

There is an error in your include_path. The paths must be separated with a ";" and not with a ":"
-->

Code: Select all

include_path='.;C:\xampp\php\PEAR;C:\xampp\htdocs\b2'

I don't know. That was your question, how to use a PEAR package (in the correct way)...

Which is what you are asking me to do.

But as I wrote above... I also think, your forum software have it's own db-class and does not need a PEAR installation. Just correct the include_path. After this, the forum should also find its own include files.

(or just ask the forum support)
