Mountain Lion php pear and pecl
I've upgraded to Mountain Lion and installed php5.4 which took a bit of tweaking Mountain Lion change php location
My next issue is if I run pear -v or pecl -v these return
Could not open input file: /usr/lib/php/pear/pearcmd.php
Could not open input file: /usr/lib/php/pear/peclcmd.php
Do I need to change pear and pecl to point to my new php which is installed in /usr/local/php5/bin/
If so how do I do this and will I lose all of my previously installed extensions such as phpunit?
Thanks
Answer
I sorted this by installing pear again. After downloading go-pear.phar then running
sudo php -d detect_unicode=0 go-pear.phar
In the install there are options to change directories pear is using. They were already set to the correct locations for my new php such as /usr/local/php5/bin
I then had to add that path to my bash_profile for the pear command to be recognised.
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/php5/bin
To get pecl working again I removed pecl from /usr/bin then symlinked to the pecl in /usr/local/php5/bin
sudo ln -s /usr/local/php5/bin/pecl /usr/bin/pecl
The first package I tried to install was APC and I got the error
Cannot find autoconf. Please check your autoconf installation and the
$PHP_AUTOCONF environment variable. Then, rerun this script.
ERROR: `phpize' failed
This was sorted by following instructions from phpize won't work on Mac OS X Lion I used the homebrew solution
UPDATE: I installed PHPUnit fine then ran phpunit --version
This gave an error of
PHP Warning: require(/usr/lib/php/pear/PHPUnit/Autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/bin/phpunit on line 43
Running which phpunit returned /usr/bin/phpunit
Solved by more symlinking
sudo ln -s /usr/local/php5/bin/phpunit phpunit
