    Just wondering if anyone knows the whereabouts of the Pear installation on the Blacknight Minimus package so I can add that path to my includes.

    Don't want to have to wait for support.

    Pear on Linux plans should be /usr/bin/pear
    It's probably already in the include path

    Well if its in the include path already my scripts would be able to locate DB.php but they can't.

    Even when I explicitly add the path using the ini_set command:
    ini_set("include_path",".:/usr/libexec/php5-cgi/share/pear/"); 
// for PHP 5

    I get an 'Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/usr/libexec/php5-cgi/share/pear//DB.php)' error and
    ini_set("include_path",".:/usr/bin/pear/");
(for PHP4)

    errors saying it can't locate DB.php when I attempt to include it.

    Spoke to support this morning and their only suggestion is to install my own version of Pear which to be honest I would like to avoid as it gives an extra maintenance headache to me. Register365 provide access on their shared hosting plans to their installation of Pear so why not Blacknight?

    Can't believe I am the only customer out there using Pear who would like this facility provided.

    I'll ask one of our technical team to have a look at this for you.

    Thanks Michele, I've been talking to another of your tech guys there and it seems this will be a no go. Its a pity as apart from that I am really liking the features provided, the Control Panel is very intuitive and easy to use.

    I will just install my own Pear copy above the root directory.
