I am sure you have tried this, but, Do you call the full path to php for cron.

something like:

40 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php -q /home/user/phpcliscript

Hope this helps.


At 10:10 AM 2/28/2003 -0800, you wrote:
The path is

#!/usr/local/bin/php -q

But like I said, that can't be the problem because when I run it from
the command line, it runs fine.  The only problem I am having is that it
won't run from cron.  That is why I think it is an issue with the cron
environment.  All other types of scripts like bash scripts run fine from
cron.  I am surprised no one else has come across this problem before.

Please help me!

Shouldn't it be
#!/usr/local/bin/php

Or was it just a typo here?
