Class Phar not found in VPS

I have purchased a VPS in Dreamhost. Now Im trying to run php composer.phar install but it says:

Fatal error: Class 'Phar' not found in /home/john/mysite.com/composer.phar on line 13

Since I have found out that I have these directories:

/usr/local/php /usr/local/php53 /usr/local/php54

and, for example, in /usr/local/php53/bin/ I have this:

phar  phar.phar  php  php-cgi  php-config  phpize

,how can I run php composer.phar install without errors?

If you need more information about content in folders I will give it of course.

This works for me:

php -d extension=phar.so composer.phar [... your command ...]

This includes the phar extension for the current runtime. Works for shared / VPC servers.

It looks like you might not have the phar extension installed or configured correctly. It might be worth checking the output of a call to phpinfo().
