Question

I downloaded and installed PEAR Auth package using the following on my terminal

/Applications/MAMP/bin/php5/bin/pear install Auth

I got confirmation that it is installed, but when I do a require_once('Auth.php') in the program I am running I’m getting an error message that it failed to include.

When I look in the directory for the auth.php, I can’t see it anywhere, but, as I said, I have confirmation it’s not installed.

a) because PEAr comes installed with MAMP, I was under the impression that Pear auth.php woulded sync automatically with PHP so that I don’t have to build a file path. Is that correct?

b) Is there code that I can enter into the Terminal to find out the file path of auth.php? assuming that it’s installed…

Answer 1

cd [Installation_Dir]
find . -name Auth.php -print

This should show you if that file exists in the installation directory.
