Hi all, I just scanned the list archives and couldn't find my problem listed, forgive me if I just did a poor search.
I've just been forced to take the 'emergency migration' of an active website that uses php to communicate with a postgresql backend. (php 4.2.3, apache 1.3.29, postgresql 7.2.4) There was minimal communication with the previous "owner" and all I've had to work from is a pretty weak Configuration Inventory document. I'm sure I'll find scads more problems in the days to come, but at the moment the critical one is this: There is a script which calls php from the command line to import a series of records generated on a remote site. The 'local' php was compliled with (among others) --enable-mbstring --enable-mbregex, and this functionality is available when the app is accessed through a browser. However, when the script is run from the command line, it fails claiming that it cannot find the function mb_ereg_replace(). The command line script is being run as the same user that runs the online app, from within the same tree. php -i shows indicates that the same php.ini file is being used as I can see in a phpinfo() call through the browser. This is all very new to me and I have a ton of pressure from above because this app is well used. Why is more or less core functionality not available from the command line? Where should I start digging? I'd really, REALLY appreciate any pointers you can give me. With great thanks in advance, Andrew --
