The php command line interface that is part of the entropy php package expects a php.ini file in /etc. This is why the PEAR command line tools don't work in a default installation. I created a symlink to the configuration file of the php apache module:

This was a great tip. I had been battling this problem all day and likely would not have fixed it properly.

Thanks very much!!!

Thank you so much for this thread. I had been trying to install pear packages using the "pear install" command, it just would not work! This fixed it.

Is there anyway that Marc Liyanage can put this somewhere on the PHP install notes webpage?

Thanks again!

Here is another I ran into:

http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=25163&edit=3

I edited /usr/bin/phpize at line 44, changing "libtoolize" to "glibtoolize"

Mac OS X 10.3.4 and Entropy-PHP-4.3.6-4

Perhaps this will be fixed when the Entropy php package is updated to PHP 4.3.7 ?

Then I was able to build the SQLite 1.0.2 module.

I'm using the PHP 4.3.9 package and I didn't have problems with the software looking at the wrong php.ini file. But I had problems with the contents of php.ini. It had this:

extension_dir = "./"

When it really should have been:

extension_dir = "/usr/local/php/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20020429"

That fixed my inability to load the Pear SQLite module.
