#32746 [NEW]: PHP command line option doesn't have verbose/debug output.

From: scott at abcoa dot com Operating system: AIX or any Unix(s)/Linux(s) PHP version: 4.3.10 PHP Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function Bug description: PHP command line option doesn't have verbose/debug output. Description: ------------ This is a request for enhancement for the command line option. I couldn't find an earlier bug report via bug search, so forgive me if this is a duplicate or something. As I looked up at http://us2.php.net/features.commandline and it doesn't have the option for debugging or verbose output via the shell environment. With most shell environment for bash, ksh, etc., I can do the -x or maybe -d option to see the output via the O/S and I/O so I can see what is goign on behind hte scene when I have problem with why am I not getting response. A line by line trace is useful also... Yes, I can do with exec() or system() but I had cURL compiled with PHP and other stuffs, so it get more complicated than it look. Thanks... Reproduce code: --------------- #!/usr/local/bin/php <?php //blah blah blah codes... ?> Expected result: ---------------- Something like this or close enough, whatever make it possible for us to read the O/S output or I/O output... --snip-- -=[/usr/local/bin]==>sh -x ./inquiry_pull_test.sh + 0< l + = ./inquiry_pull_test.sh[3]: =: not found. + Testing Inquiry Send... * About to connect() to ec.equifax.com:443 * Connected to ec.equifax.com ((nil)) port 443 * SSL connection using RC4-MD5 * Server certificate: * subject: /C=US/ST=Georgia/L=Alpharetta/O=Equifax Inc/CN=ec.equifax.com * start date: 2004-07-01 02:57:28 GMT * expire date: 2005-07-01 02:57:28 GMT * common name: ec.equifax.com (matched) * issuer: /C=ZA/ST=Western Cape/L=Cape Town/O=Thawte Consulting cc/OU=Certification Services Division/CN=Thawte Server CA/Email=server-certs@thawte.com > POST /servlet/stspost HTTP/1.1 Authorization: Basic blah blah OpenSSL/0.9.6g Host: ec.equifax.com Pragma: no-cache Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, */* Content-Length: 396 Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded site_id=00000&service_name=test&efx_request=DIAL blah blah --snip-- -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32746&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=32746&r=mysqlcfg
