PEAR breaks on upgrading to PHP5

From DreamHost

Jump to: navigation, search

After enabling PHP5 using the control panel, I found that my web application didn't work. Scary!

Turns out that DreamHost's installation of PHP5 has a different include path than PHP4 did, so you have to tell it where to find the PEAR libraries. To fix this, add this in your PHP configuration file: 

set_include_path(
	get_include_path() . 
	PATH_SEPARATOR . '/usr/local/lib/php'
);
