phpinfo() doesn't show phar enabled/disabled

I am using PHP Version 5.3.15 on OpenSUSE. Following is in my php.ini:

[Phar]  
; http://php.net/phar.readonly  
phar.readonly = Off

; http://php.net/phar.require-hash  
phar.require_hash = Off

;phar.cache_list =

When I try to execute phar using CLI, I get a class not found error for Phar:

php composer.phar install  
PHP Fatal error:  Class 'Phar' not found in /srv/www/htdocs/composer.phar on line 13

I tried searching everywhere but can't seem to find a reason. Please help.

Solution

  • It looks like you don't have the php5-phar RPM package installed. After installing it with your favorite package manager (e.g. YaST), it should work.
