Heya All,
This is my first posting to the mailing list so please be gentle. I
actually have read the docs...
I installed Squirrelmail to work with a MySQL back-end, as all my mail
users are virtual. I did have to install the PEAR:DB package and mod the
php.ini as noted in section 5.6 of the admin guide. I ran config.pl and
once I did that, it all worked. Life was good. I showed it to a bunch of
people, I was so proud of me :-)
So since I use the wonderful Postfixadmin tool to do my virtual users
etc I went and added that plugin. I got the plugin, put it in the
plugins dir under 'postfixadmin' etc. I then ran conf.pl again and
enabled that plugin and the administrator plugin. I then went back to my
sqirrelmail site and looked for the plugins...couldn't see where
anything had been added to the page. So I closed and dumped the temp
files from all my browsers to make sure I had no cached pages etc. I
then went back and tried again and now I am getting the dreaded:
"Could not include PEAR database functions required for the database
backend.
Is PEAR installed, and is the include path set correctly to find DB.php?
Please contact your system administrator and report this error."
CentOS 5.0 fully patched no GUI
Postfix
Dovecot
MySQL
Postfixadmin
MailScanner
Clam-AV
Spamassassin
In /etc/php.ini:
I do have an 'include_path' set to my DB.php file
(/usr/share/pear/DB.php)
I do have an include_path set to my PEAR dir (/usr/share/pear)
In the config my DSN is:
mysql://<user>:<password>@localhost/<databasename>
A run of "pear list" gives:
Installed packages, channel pear.php.net:
=========================================
Package Version State
Archive_Tar 1.3.1 stable
Console_Getopt 1.2 stable
DB 1.7.13 stable
MDB2 2.4.1 stable
MDB2_Driver_mysql 1.4.1 stable
PEAR 1.4.9 stable
XML_RPC 1.5.0 stable
So DB is installed but I cannot say if it conflicts that the later MDB2
is also installed. I don't want to remove MDB2 as it was installed
before I knew to look at it and I cannot say for certain that nothing
else depends on it (like Postfixadmin etc).
The rights on DB.ini are 644 (-rw-r-r--) and root is owner and group.
Though I don't know how that could have been changed, I thought I'd
throw it our there
Now here is a little weirdness that may be a clue: Using the configtest
page it show the include_path as "/usr/share/pear/DB.ini" no matter what
I change it to. Sure, it's the right path but still...if I change it in
/etc/php.ini shouldn't it reflect that in the configtest page?
So anyway if anyone can shed some light on this and give me a boot in
the right direction. Everything I've read just says to verify the
include_path but I've done that until my eyes bleed. I will be happy to
provide any other info necessary.
