It was maybe the problem, sometimes ISP have weird permissions settings...

Does it work now or not?

Hi,

 My ISP runs PHP as CGI with Safe Mode "ON".

 So, the execution permissions are OK on the server on which these scripts run.

 It's strange, because, the first execution does not work, but the second does.

 Besides, during the installation procedure, a directory with the name "<my instaldir>/$prefix/temp" is created.

 Is this correct ???

 Regards.

Being in safe_mode does not make your permissions any better, it is often even worst :)

However, I think you found the right problem. Can you try this file to install:
http://pear.php.net/~pierre/gopear.txt

Save it under gopear.php and run it. It should fix your problem (and a couple of other).

Hi, 

 No, Not Solved, the problem persists!

 Regards,

Which?

I was talking about:

"<my instaldir>/$prefix/temp" is created.

Is it still the case? Do you still get the warnings about (PEAR.php)?

Hi, 

 With the system's new version, the "<my instaldir>/$prefix/temp" directory is no longer created.

 However, the initial problem remains.

 Besides, the following warnings occurred:

=============
warning: pear/PEAR requires package "pear/Archive_Tar" (version >= 1.3.1)
warning: pear/PEAR requires package "pear/Console_Getopt" (version >= 1.2)
pear/PEAR can optionally use package "pear/XML_RPC" (version >= 1.4.0)
pear/PEAR can optionally use package "pear/PEAR_Frontend_Web" (version >= 0.5.0)
pear/PEAR can optionally use package "pear/PEAR_Frontend_Gtk" (version >= 0.4.0)
=============

  Should I worry about them?

  What do they mean?

  Regards,

:: The warnings occur on the second execution.

They are installer warnings. They are displayed when you install a package, to inform you about possible troubles but are usually not critical.

So yes, you can ignore them, they are normal in the go-pear install.

Besides these warnings, any other troubles?

Hi,

  I have found a possible solution !!

  When, I create manually the directory "<my instaldir>/temp" before the execution, then, the instalation work fine.

  But, occur a warning: "System's Tempdir failed, trying to use $prefix/tmp ...ok".

  So, my initial suspect are correctly.
  The bug it's on the manipulation of "$prefix/temp".

  Regards

Fetch again the script from the link I gave you. It should fix the problem.

Hi, 

  This problem with "tmp_dir" have resolved.

  But, now occur another problem:

Ok, now you have another problem not really related to gopear.

I can help to figure it out if you give me an access to your host, ftp or SSH. You can mail me it to pierre.php@gmail.com. If not, I see little hope to solve your problem without having an access.

Hi, 

  I send for you, but, in Private.
