installing pear on a remote server... help

Post by mapmaker »

I copied go-pear.php to my server, version 0.6.0. I put the file at: public_html/pear/go-pear.php. I then gave the folder "pear" and the file "go-pear.php" full permissions (777).

I clicked next, didn't touch anything on the page, and then clicked install. I got this error:
Downloading package: PEAR-stable......

Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to pear.php.net:80 in /xxx/xxx/public_html/pear/go-pear.php on line 982



download of http://pear.php.net/get/PEAR-stable failed: No route to host (113)
What's wrong?
