to run a php script without apache

[netcomander]

hi all,

I urgently need to run a php-script
without apache.

To achieve this, usually you have to type into
your linuxprompt
filename.php -q

This does not work, but it did on my former
computer.
Is there anyone with a hint how to make my php
run from my linux-prompt?

thanks in advance
greetings markus

uh, just do:

/path/to/php filename -q

or cmod it to 755 and put the #! line @ teh top:

./filename q
