I followed the insturctions here, and installed custom PEAR, to beable to install packages.
http://wiki.dreamhost.com/PEAR

It seems to work fine and take over for PECL to.

When tyring to run "pecl install uploadprogress-beta"

I recive this error

pecl/uploadprogress requires PHP (version >= 5.2.0), installed version is 4.4.7
No valid packages found
install failed

In panel I do have php version as 5.2.2 for all my sites

I think whats hanging you up is your path to the PHP-CGI binary on both config files is pointing to the PHP4.4.7 PHP-CGI (see in red below:

I don't think you have to install your own custom PHP5 if you just correct those paths (though I could be wrong about that).

Try this path to the PHP5-CGI executable:

/usr/local/php5/bin/php

--rlparker

Tried that but still no luck. Gives the same error, It can download the package, but it wont' install it...

From the Wiki Article: "It is important that you use export to have the paths stick when using PEAR from the command line."

Did you do this step? Could failing to do that be what is might be causing the problem ?

--rlparker

I followed these instructions, to set the correct path for php
It is highly suggested that you modify your ~/.bash_profile to ensure that your environment is properly configured to access your local PEAR installation before defaulting to the shared installation. PEAR also tests for the existence of the PHP_PEAR_PHP_BIN environment variable.

If your local installation of PEAR is v1.4.0 or above, you should also update your PATH variable to point to the proper PHP5 location.

Here is an example bash_profile that provides support for PEAR v1.4+ and PHP5 on a shared DreamHost account. It is important that you use export to have the paths stick when using PEAR from the command line.

export PHP_PEAR_PHP_BIN=/usr/local/php5/bin/php
export PATH=/home/username/pear:/usr/local/php5/bin:$PATH


You open .bash_profile, and put those 2 lines in. And then relog your session, for them to take effect and it worked.

But now I have another errror, when tyring to install, with PHP Size

As the error suggests - you need to install Autoconf.
Honestly though, I NEVER recommend trying to use the PECL installer on DreamHost. It takes more time to setup/configure than it's worth. You'd be better off installing a custom copy of PHP5 and then just install each PECL extension afterwards.
We have some PECL install scripts in the DH Wiki that would make for decent examples on how to go about doing so in fact.

That really doesn't help me solve the problem at all....and I see no point in installing a custom php, this will be like the only time I probally ever use it...

Well, you're welcome to continue attempting your PECL installs by installing Autoconf and probably Automake as well into some directory under your user account. Once you've done that, you'll need to modify your .bash_profile to reflect their locations in the "PATH" setting. I believe you need to specify their location in another setting as well, I just can't recall which one off hand, but you'll definitely need to indicate which folder each one resides in under the "PATH" setting.

Outside of that - good luck man. I found installing and configuring a custom php to be infinitely easier than playing around with my environment variables in the attempt to get PECL to play nice. Hopefully you have better luck
