PEAR / PHAR Installation problem

Hi all,

I have installed the latest version of Wampserver v2.0. I was trying to send email through my localhost using my ISP's SMTP, though it did not work out. Someone suggested installing PEAR or activating PHAR extension.

1] When i try to activate the PHAR extension "php_phar", an error message pops up 3 times:



Also, i did not find "php_phar.dll" file in "c:/wamp/bin/php/php5.3.0/ext directory.


Now, there is a PEAR directory i found in "C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.3.0\PEAR", though it only contains a single file called "go-pear.phar". And in the directory "C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.3.0" there is a file called "go-pear.bat".

2] When i tried to run click "go-pear.bat", it gave me the following errors:




What am i doing wrong? Can anyone help me in setting up pear on WAMP?

Regards.
