    Hi! Thanks for the update, but I must say, the link to the Zend Framework Tutorial is wrong. You spelled it arkabat.com. :)

    Regards,

    Helder

    Hey, I’m trying to follow your tutorial on my Dreamhost shell account, but when I try “zf show version” I get this:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ‘{‘ in /path/to/zend/library/Zend/Tool/Framework/Client/Console.php on line 63

    On Console.php we have

    61: class Zend_Tool_Framework_Client_Console 62: extends Zend_Tool_Framework_Client_Abstract 63: implements Zend_Tool_Framework_Client_Interactive_InputInterface, 64: Zend_Tool_Framework_Client_Interactive_OutputInterface 65: {

    It should be ok, right?

    “php -v” gives:

    PHP 5.2.6 (cli) (built: Oct 24 2008 14:56:33) Copyright (c) 1997-2008 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2008 Zend Technologies with Zend Extension Manager v1.2.2, Copyright (c) 2003-2007, by Zend Technologies with Zend Optimizer v3.3.3, Copyright (c) 1998-2007, by Zend Technologies

    Helder,

    Is there another version of the Framework on your php include_path ?

    i.e. what’s the output of:

    php  -r "echo get_include_path() . \"\\n\";"

    Regards,

    Rob…

    Hey, the php include_path reads:

    .:/usr/local/php5/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php

    And I have the following aliases in bash:

    alias ‘php=/usr/local/php5/bin/php’ alias zf=’$HOME/share/zend/bin/zf.sh’

    I don’t see another framework on that path. Only PEAR.

    Helder, I had the same problem on Dreamhost. Quick fix for this is to find and delete the following lines in zf.sh:

    (from line 22)

    find php: pear first, command -v second, straight up php lastly

    if test “@php_bin@” != ‘@’php_bin’@'; then PHP_BIN=”@php_bin@” elif command -v php 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null; then PHP_BIN=command -v php else PHP_BIN=php fi

    and type this instead:

    PHP_BIN=/usr/local/php5/bin/php
