ISPCONFIG3 Centos5 php 5.3 pear problem

[andyace]

Hi
I am hosting a new website for a company, the website has been transferred to us from another hosting company. and uses pear for mail
We have ispconfig3 running on centos5 php 5.3 and typically use postfix for all other mail websites which works fine.
i have yum installed pear and it works from the cli, the website throws a 500 error when the page with the pear mail reference loads, if i copy the pear mail folder to the website pagem, the page loads and pear works, i have set the path .:/usr/share/pear etc in php.ini and have set the vhost path and recreated the website vhost and copied the files back, still no luck, im guessing its a pathing or rights issue, do i need to set an allow directive to the usr/share/pear folder somewhere? also i cant see any log files with any relevant errors in.

thanks for checking my thread.

Did you check Apache's error log?

HI
Yep nothing in error_log in httpd, apart from some xend shell errors and timezone set incorrectly for some sites.

You can find the exact error message in the error.log of the website. Dont llok in the global error.log, use the error.log of the website.

And please do not post duplicate threads!

Hi

Sorry about the double post i found this forum was more specific to the problem

In the php page if i hash out the 2 mail.php calls the page loads but the email function on the page doesn't work

# GET PEAR FUNCTIONS
# ("Mail.php");
# ("Mail/mime.php");

If i remove the hashes the page gets this error

HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was attempting to fulfill the request.

and all i get this (i think unrelated) error in the websites error log

[Mon Sep 05 21:26:43 2011] [warn] mod_fcgid: stderr: PHP Warning: date() [<a href='function.date'>function.date</a>]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'Europe/London' for 'BST/1.0/DST' instead in /var/www/clients/client21/web90/web/destinations/index.php on line 182

if i copy all the pear folders and files from the /usr/share/pear folder to the website directory that this php file is being called from it all works but isn't very practical

Thanks
