PHPUnit , PEAR upgrading Errors
Note : I've read all questions about this problem
PEAR is installed and configured on my system (Ubuntu 11.10 + Apache/2.2.20). Because
<?php
require_once 'System.php';
var_dump(class_exists('System', false));
?>
Returning this :
bool(true)
(PEAR Manual : Checking if PEAR works Step 4)
When i tried to use phpunit i'm getting this error.
PHP Warning: require_once(PHP/CodeCoverage/Filter.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/bin/phpunit on line 38
PHP Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'PHP/CodeCoverage/Filter.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /usr/bin/phpunit on line 38
After this error i've decided to install it
sudo /usr/bin/pear install phpunit/PHP_CodeCoverage
But i'm getting
phpunit/PHP_CodeCoverage requires PEAR Installer (version >= 1.9.4), installed version is 1.9.2
I'm getting this error when upgrading PEAR with sudo pear upgrade
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method PEAR_Registry::packageinfo() in /usr/share/php/PEAR/Dependency2.php on line 687
I'm not sure what is the problem ?

pear upgrade pear : PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method PEAR_Registry::packageinfo() in /usr/share/php/PEAR/Dependency2.php on line 687
PEAR Version : 1.9.2 and php-pear package installed.
Answer
PEAR 1.9.2 is outdated and broken beyond any hope of repair with newer pear server infrastructure.
I have no clue why distributions still insist on something that is just broken :)
Install a new pear via go-pear.phar and make sure you have pear version 1.9.4 and then force pear to ignore it's old cache files using
sudo pear install --force --alldeps phpunit/phpunit
Getting rid of the old pear:
sudo apt-get purge php5-pear
Now
which pear
should result in the command not being found. If it is still there delete the binary and the associated php classes in /usr/share/php.
From your console history I'd say you didn't install the new pear with sudo rights so it landed in /home/ or in /usr/local/ instead of in the default system location.
It shouldn't matter as long as you
- Get rid of the old pear
- Change your php.ini include_path to the new pear install location
