Installing PEAR and PHPUnit with xampp

Question

I am trying to get PHPUnit up and running the following are the steps I am currently following:

### Install new PEAR Version needed for PHPUnit 3.X
### Downl         


        

Answer 1

It seems the issue is not with PHPUnit but with your pear installation in general.

The user you run the install with does not have the privileges to create the needed folders.

Ether fix those permissions or start the cmd prompt with admin privileges (windowsbutton & enter "cmd" then strg+shift+enter) and rerun the commands.
