Which example are you talking about ? 1 or 2 ?

Do you use setDefaults ? Look at the example 1.
What version of php do you use ?

There is no site with documentation for QuickForm. It is a big class with
lots of files and writing a documentation would take too long for me now.

Can you try to install Auth with pear installer and report if it installs
everything in the same directory or create the container directory as
expected or if it does the same thing as with QuickForm.

I reported a bug for that yesterday. There's nothing else I can do about it.
