Grant, thank you for the solution. I have a new problem now, that I
hope Grant or someone else could advise me on: the script hangs when
called (e.g. "echo 'test' | php app/mailhandler.php") - specifically,
when the dispatcher is called.
My code is as follows:
$raw_message = file_get_contents("php://stdin");
$Dispatcher= new Dispatcher();
$url = "/messages/parse";
$result = $Dispatcher->dispatch($url, array('cli' => true,
'raw_message' => $raw_message));
I am pretty sure I have the controller file correctly setup; 'cake
bake all' created the file and everything in it, except for the parse
method which I have since created. The parse method just retrieves the
value from $this->params as Grant outlined above and calls print - I'd
like to use output buffering to capture information and place in a
separate log file.
When mailhandler.php is called the error log does get updated, with
the following entry repeated 10 times:
2008-04-15 12:54:03 Error: Array
(
[id] =>
[table] =>
[ds] =>
[alias] => Log
[name] => Log
)
I have a model named Log, which I believe shouldn't be a problem, as
Cake's logging is done by the object CakeLog and the method
Object::log(). Log has a HABTM relationship with Message, and both
seem to be correctly declared (I can correctly connect them using the
scaffolding webpages).
So, do you think my Log model is the reason for the script hanging?
And no, I'm not writing a bounce email handler. I'm actually taking
submissions via email, like how Flickr lets you upload an image to
your own personal secret email address.
Thanks for the help!
