Cause of Error:
PHP for Windows does not support pear configuration classes.

Cure:
Delete Config class

How to:
step 1. Open xampp\xampp\php\pear\Config.php
step 2. find Config class definition (found at the very bottom of config.php file)
step 3. Delete that part.
step 4. Restart xampp.

I have looked for the class config on or around line 43, here is what i see on line 43

Code:

} elseif (getenv('SystemRoot')) {

should i just commengt hat line out or am i in the wrong place?

oooh thank you thank you - I can now get into my forum admin with no problems. Very Happy

(7.6 with 3.2 patch)

Just incase us "noobs" don't understand 100%:

In Xampp/php/pear/config.php
I had to delete line 43 (class config) thru the bottom where it says //end class config

So line 43-229 -- now i only have 36 lines in my config.php file as long as that's okay (security wise) i'll take it - the fix works!
