title: How to install Zend Framework through PEAR using WAMPSERVER2.2 (64-bit)?
body: <p>As the title states, I am having considerable problems in installing the Zend Framework through PEAR. After spending most of the day on this I'm quite surprised and frustrated with the lack of documentation, so as a result I was hoping the community would help me out.</p>
  
  <p>Today I decided to change from XAMPP to WAMPSERVER2.2 for my development environment. After configuring the environment correctly and attempted to install Zend, I was dismayed to find that it does not come with the PEAR manager by default (that raises the question, why the hell not???). As a result I had to go download <code>go-pear.phar</code> and run the install under the command prompt <code>&gt;php go-pear.phar</code>. All seems to run quite well... however, after adding the Zend channel <code>zend.googlecode.com/svn</code> trying to install the package via <code>pear install zend/zend</code> I run into problems, i.e. No releases available for package "zend.googlecode.com/svn/zend" install failed. </p>
  
  <p>Tearing my hair out over this... could it be that pear was installed incorrectly? Why after adding the channel would the install fail? Any advice would be much appreciated.</p>
