[SOLVED] yum install php-pear* on centos

Issue

I'm trying to install pear on my centos.

I've used "*yum install php-pear**" to install pear and it seemed to install with success. No errors. I restart my server.

However when I check out phpinfo(). I see that my php is still built using "--without-pear".

Isn't yum supposed to rebuild my php with pear? What would be possibly going wrong?

Thanks!

Solution

Try something like

$ pear list

and

$ pear info PEAR

- now if you get a listing of installed packages in the first case and information on what version of pear is installed in the second you're ready to use it.
