Discovery of channel "example" failed

Hello,

I have problems with a fresh installation of PEAR. I installed PHP 5.2.1
with PEAR and run upgrade to bring PEAR up to date.

Now I want to install Phing and Propel but I'm not able to add new channels.

If I try the following:
$ sudo pear channel-discover pear.phing.info

I get this mesage:
Discovery of channel "pear.phing.info" failed (channel-add: Cannot open
"http://pear.phing.info/channel.xml")

http://pear.phing.info/channel.xml is browsable.

The same Problem whne I try to add channel "pear.phpdb.org".

This is a list of installed packages:
Archive_Tar 1.3.2
Console_Getopt 1.2.2
Log 1.9.10
PEAR 1.5.3
PhpDocumentor 1.3.2
Structures_Graph 1.0.2

Am I missing something? Your help is appreciated. Thank you.


With kind regards,

squig

I've filed a bug... channel updates don't work for me either.

as a temporary solution just make the directory which is set as your
pear config-get temp_dir writeable by your user.
