Can't run PHP cli script from Cron

I am trying to run a PHP CLI script from cron using PHP 4.3 and FreeBSD 5.0 This is what I have verified: My clock is set right I can run bash scripts from cron I have tried running the script as root and as other users If I run the PHP CLI script by had it works fine I set cron to run the script every minute just to make sure I am doing my cron tab right Here is my crontab entry: * * * * * /path/to/file/file_name.php I also have * * * * * /path/to/file/bash_test_script which contains the following information ls -l >> /path/to/file/holder/file_results.txt With every passing minute the bash script gets run and file file_results.txt get another ls appendied to it On the other hand, Nothing happens with the PHP script. Inside the php script I have it emailing me using the php mail() funtction. If I run this script by hand I get an email from the script. If I run the script by cron everyminute I get nothing when I should be getting a email every minute. I hope someone can help me with this.
