hi, thanks for the tip. I was wondering about it too.... I do not have access to everywhere on the server. I tried /usr/bin/php and it worked...... :)
I tested the following script for connection to database, executing my functions etc... everything seems to work but mail. any ideas? Thanks for the help. erisen btw: at last, I added the die to my mail command, and fair enough, I got the Can not send this as output. So, now the question is, how can I send mail with php / cron config. please note that the script worked fine on the browser. thx. code: #!/usr/bin/php -q <?php include ("application.php"); $subject="Cron Job has run"; $body="test.php is running now"; $sendtome = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", $subject, $body,$sendtome) or die ('Can not send this'); echo $sendtome; echo "hello world"; echo turk_now() ; $array = get_user_stat($CONF) ; while (list($key,$value)=each($array)) { echo "$key $value<BR>"; } ?> --- Rasmus Lerdorf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Well, does /usr/local/bin/php exist? > > On Thu, 10 Jan 2002, Mehmet Kamil ERISEN wrote: > > > hi, > > here is the question: > > I know I need to add a line like: > > #!/usr/local/bin/php > > to the begining of my php page followed by > > <?php > > my code > > ?> > > > > Then set a cron job, so it runs. > > > > I have done all that. aslo made the php file > executable. > > The file is executing. > > First I did not put the line #!/usr/local/bin/php > > and I received an email with error messages. > > > > now I added the line with #!/usr/local/bin/php > > and I am receiving an error message: > > /bin/sh: /home/webvoire/www/cm/test.php: No such file > or > > directory > > > > any input? > > > > how can I find out the correct #!/usr/bin/... to put. > is > > there any way to figure it our from phpinfo();? > > > > > > > > ===== > > Mehmet Erisen > > http://www.erisen.com > > > > __________________________________________________ > > Do You Yahoo!? > > Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!
