Re: command line execution of php code

Mark, If you build the CGI version, you will get a standalone binary. When you run confiigure, just eliminate --with-apache or any other server-specific option, and it will build the CGI verison by default. I find this useful for debugging as well, as I sometimes have parsing errors that cause a script to fail before it can output any text to the browser, and the standalone version will usually reveal the "hidden" error message. -- Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Allard" <mallard@lightband.com> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Wednesday, August 30, 2000 12:55 PM Subject: [PHP] command line execution of php code > I am running PHP on a Linux system ... i have an occasion to use a PHP > script that does not need to be called from a web page.
