Discovery of channel "pear.phing.info" failed (channel-add: Cannot open "https://pear.phing.info/channel.xml" (Connection to `pear.phing.info:443' failed: Unable to find the socket transport "ssl" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP?))

Solution

  • Set the proxy and everything should work:

    pear config-set http_proxy http://login:pwd@server:port
