Plesk 9 – Enable PHP Pear for a domain

Re: How to enable PHP Pear for a domain in Plesk

1) edit vhost.conf as such:

<Directory /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs>
        php_admin_value include_path "/var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/:/usr/share/pear/"
        php_admin_value open_basedir "none"
</Directory>

2) /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/websrvmng – -reconfigure-vhost –vhost-name=domain.com

3) service httpd restart

To test pear, create a php file, eg check_pear.php

<?php
require_once 'System.php';
var_dump(class_exists('System', false));
?>

4) open check_pear.php in a browser, a ‘true’ result confirms pear is working:

bool(true)

That’s all there is to getting PEAR working on Plesk 9 Linux.
