[PHP / PEAR] - Can't use any of the PEAR libraries!

[feenster99]

Hi folks,
I'm trying to use the PEAR libraries for some of my PHP. I have a Linux Fedora Core 3 dedicated server that i'm using. PEAR is installed and configured properly it seems. However, I cannot use any of the PEAR library files. For example, the following code gives me this error:

<?php
ini_set("display_errors", "1");
require_once("DB.php");
?>

(http://test.pcmhosting.co.uk/pear1.php)

Warning: main(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/usr/share/pear/DB.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/tmp:/home/default/test.pcmhosting.co.uk) in /home/default/test.pcmhosting.co.uk/user/htdocs/pear1.php on line 5

Warning: main(DB.php): failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /home/default/test.pcmhosting.co.uk/user/htdocs/pear1.php on line 5

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'DB.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear') in /home/default/test.pcmhosting.co.uk/user/htdocs/pear1.php on line 5

/usr/share/pear/DB.php does exist, and has "rw-r--r--" permissions (644) as do all the other PEAR classes in that directory.

Any idea what's going on? Here is a PHPInfo() for reference:

Tell your host to put /usr/share/pear/ into your include_path.

Edit: wait what it is what on earth

Hehe, yep:
include_path .:/usr/share/pear

Even i do the path directly, ie. require_once("/usr/share/pear/DB.php"); I get the same errors! Very weird.

Any ideas?

Silly me, open_basedir != include_path. Get them to add it to the list of files permitted by open_basedir.

Whoops, looks like that one passed my eye! Is it in php.ini do oyu know?

Cheers,
