Trying to keep you from having to throw much of your code away in a few
months I dare to ask if you voluntarily started using PEAR DB as opposed
to being forced to use it because you are trying to work with old code.
This is because the package is marked as
"This package has been superseded, but is still maintained for bugs and
security fixes. Use MDB2 instead."
(to clear this up: PEAR DB has been out of development for 21 straight
months before someone started fixing very old errors just to "maintain"
the package for old users that use it in their old apps)
You should not start learning to use something for which the developer
himself tells you to better not use it but something else instead. I'm
not saying "don't use it" myself but the "just installed" and "first
hurdle" set off some alarm bells...
