File not executed when running from terminal - El Forum - 08-07-2013

hi guys,

I need to run a file using CLI ( will later use it for cron ) but somehow it's not being executed. I tested by adding email function somewhere in the middle of the file so i get email ( if program gets to this line ) but no luck ( even if I put it on top )

I tried different file ( which is just in /var/www/codeigniter/test.php and not run through codeigniter ) and this works fine

Command I ran:

Code:
php /var/www/codeigniter/index.php cron dothis

and what I get is:

Code:
Set-Cookie: ci_session=a:5:{s:10:"session_id";s:32:"86a27290ff1a94dc58db92a416e213a3";s:10:"ip_address";s:7:"0.0.0.0";s:10:"user_agent";b:0;s:13:"last_activity";i:1375930801;s:9:"user_data";s:0:"";}bb99518e71917592e4545375908dd57c; expires=Thu, 08-Aug-2013 05:00:01 GMT; path=/

Content-type: text/html

<!DOCTYPE html>

&lt;html&gt;

        &lt;head&gt;

.... rest of the document here

so basically it outputs my home file HTML. I have sessions class auto loaded and changed core/Input.php due to this error which is NOT fixed in 2.1.4

Any suggestion appreciated

Maybe command line requests are not detected properly on this machine. You may try this file for testing, it implements the CI's method for CLI detection:

detect_cli.php

Code:
&lt;?php

if (php_sapi_name() == 'cli' or defined('STDIN'))

{

    echo 'CLI detected'."\n";

    echo 'Trying to dump $_SERVER[\'argv\']:'."\n";

    var_dump($_SERVER['argv']); // Test the script with parameters, see whether they pass.

    echo "\n";

} else {

    echo 'CLI NOT detected'."\n";

}
