The problem with these PHP applications is that your configuration parameters are mixed within some code, and you cannot blindly keep a copy of your config files from your initial installation forever. > While we're discussing the horde upgrade... is there some trick to run > the 3.0 to 3.1 history migration script or is my php setup fucked-up > in the CLI (for the apache module case everything is setup in > httpd.conf, no php.ini) case (I get some error messages about not > being able to include pear.php or something like this... I don't have > the error messages at hand)? move_history_out_of_datatree.php is a Horde script, which uses Horde classes, which need to find pear in your include_path. You could try to set a temporary php.ini (with PHPRC or php -c). Regards, -- Th. Thomas.
