Is there a way to check if this pear stuff is already installed and running on the server? Cause my list is not updating n the profile

XML_RSS & cache lite?

The simplest way is to upload the testPear.php file and call it.
It should tell you in green text that everything is fine... if you get a blank page, then you probably have an error (PEAR not existing) and errors got surpressed or something.

Great hack!

I've just knocked it together... but it should work. It just tries to call both PEAR objects

If it falls over, it's because the PEAR items don't exist.

It just comes up blank for me so I guess that means it isn't installed

I don't know how to install this junk through cpanel or ssh so I'll just wait for a plugin or something I dunno.

Great idea for a hack though!

Try now with the testPear.php file I've just attached. I actually had a bug in my posted script for testing PEAR, but this one I've tested myself instead of being so cowboy.

It's rather simple, echo's along the way:

PHP Code:

<?php
echo 'About to include cache object<br />';
require_once('Cache/Lite.php');
$options = array(
  'cacheDir' => '/tmp/',
  'lifeTime' =>  5*60
);
echo 'About to create cache object<br />';
$cacheLite = new Cache_Lite($options);
echo 'About to include call cache object<br />';
if ($cacheStructure = $cacheLite->get('cacheTest')) {
  echo '<span style="color:green">Stuff in cache already, Cache_Lite must exist, as must XML_RSS.</span>';
} else {
  echo 'Nothing in the cache, but cache object called successfully<br />';
  echo 'About to include RSS object<br />';
  require_once "XML/RSS.php";
  echo 'About to create and call RSS object<br />';
  $rss =& new XML_RSS('http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/rss/recent.php?user=buro9'  );
  $rss->parse();
  echo 'About to save stuff to the cache<br />';
  $cacheLite->save('textContent', 'cacheTest');
  echo '<span style="color:green">Able to put stuff into cache, Cache_Lite must exist, as must XML_RSS.</span>';
}
?>

About to include cache object
About to create cache object
About to include call cache object
Nothing in the cache, but cache object called successfully
About to include RSS object
About to create and call RSS object
About to save stuff to the cache
Able to put stuff into cache, Cache_Lite must exist, as must XML_RSS.
