php from command line

[keak]

Hi there,
I have a php file file.php
and when I access it via the web, it works just fine and injects db entries.

However,
if I issue the command
php file.php I don't see any output and it doesn't seem to be doing the database items.

Is there a way to run this script from command line? (specifically I am trying to run it via a cron job with the php command ...... if I use wget

http://www.domain123.org/file.php

it works correctly)


Many thanks!

If you do only:

[tt]php -v[/tt]

at the command-line, what do you get?

Also, with cron it's best to use the absolute path and filename if the PHP executable in my case, that's:

[tt]/usr/local/bin/php -v[/tt]
