does anyone know what to put in the DB.php file for PEAR

i found this script for a PEAR confg file

<?php
require_once 'DB.php';	//require the PEAR:: DB classes.

$db_engine = 'mysql';
$db_user = 'mdmavxtbcd75';
$db_pass = 'PIil08jrhXqqJpe';
$db_host = 'localhost';
$db_name = 'mdmavxtbcd75';

$datasource = $db_engine.'://'.$db_user.':'.$db_pass.'@'.$db_host.'/'.$db_name;

$db_object = DB::connect($datasource, TRUE);
/* assign database object in $db_object, if the connection fails $db_object will contain
the error message. */

if(DB::isError($db_object)) {
	die($db_object->getMessage());	// If $db_object contains an error print out the
}							// error and exit.

$db_object->setFetchMode(DB_FETCHMODE_ASSOC);

?>

I just don't know what to put in the DB.php file

Thanks in advance to any replies

You don't put anything "in" the DB.php file. It is part of PEAR. It is installed automatically when you install PHP.

On a typical Linux installation it will be in /usr/local/lib/php/, but you don't need to know that ... if PEAR is installed properly, PHP will include DB.php if you refer to it as shown in the sample configuration file.

would it be possible to install PEAR on an online server such as an easily server and if so how?
