Answer 1

I had the same issue with windows 7 and xampp(php 5.6.11), I tried all reinstalling pear and phpunit but it didn't work. When I checked the permission of the C:\xammp\php\pear directory it was read-only, After I changed the permission it started working.

Answer 2

I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and I installed phpunit via Ubuntu Software Center which didn't work.

Finally I remove it and I followed instructions from here

wget https://phar.phpunit.de/phpunit.phar  
chmod +x phpunit.phar  
sudo mv phpunit.phar /usr/local/bin/phpunit

Answer 3

Your phpunit installation is broken. The easiest fix for this is

pear install --force --alldeps phpunit/phpunit

and see if what worked out.

You will need the most current pear version 1.9.4. If you don't have that version install it using the go-pear.phar. If you are running from xammp for something don't try to fix the pear installation they ship. Usually it's a LOT easier to reinstall it.

If you want to you can try to just install the missing package too:

pear install phpunit/File_Iterator

(add a --force if pear tells you that it is already installed)

Answer 4

For me the fix was simple (Ubuntu 12.04). First I did a search to make sure the file existed and where it was located:

locate Autoload.php

Which should return results similar to this:

/usr/share/php/File/Iterator/Autoload.php
/usr/share/php/PHP/CodeCoverage/Autoload.php
/usr/share/php/PHP/Depend/Autoload.php
/usr/share/php/PHP/Invoker/Autoload.php
/usr/share/php/PHP/Timer/Autoload.php
/usr/share/php/PHP/Token/Stream/Autoload.php
/usr/share/php/PHPCPD/Autoload.php
/usr/share/php/PHPUnit/Autoload.php
/usr/share/php/PHPUnit/Framework/MockObject/Autoload.php
/usr/share/php/PHP_CodeBrowser/Autoload.php
/usr/share/php/Text/Template/Autoload.php

Then I checked my include_path, which was set correctly in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini, but was still commented out in /etc/php5/cli/php.ini (the command line interface).

Uncommenting this line worked for me:

include_path = ".:/usr/share/php:/usr/include/php5"

Pretty basic I know, but it's always the little things when setting up a new machine ;-)

Answer 5

Also, using open-server bundle one can notice that it reports way too short include_path.

To fix this on Windows 7 you can do

cd c:\Windows
mklink php.ini c:\OpenServer\userdata\temp\config\php.ini

Answer 6

All kind of nice things I have read on this one. First check where the Autoload.php is located. Use:

$ find . -name 'Autoload.php' -type f

I assume that your files are located in:

/usr/local/pear/share/pear

I have Apple OSX 10.8.4 MAMP and MAMP-PRO installed and I have several other PHP installations.
For the last one I have done the following: First check if there is a php.ini in the directory: /private/etc
If not, do:

$ sudo cp /private/etc/php.ini.default /private/etc/php.ini

Add the following lines at the bottom of the 'php.ini' file:

; *** Added by <your-name> ****
include_path=".:/usr/local/pear/share/pear"
; *** Ended addition ****

Done.
