Ben,
$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"] should be available from php-cli also.
Create a file called test.php with this inside:
<? echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]."\n"; ?>
then run:
# php test.php
and show us the output.
Which PHP version and OS are you running?

Hello list-
Due to the length of time it takes for sms_client to page all the
required recipients in the event of a trigger in my configuration, my
consolidate.php cron process can take more than a minute to run.
My problem is that when an alarm is triggered, I often end up with more
than one consolidate.php process running at a time, and all hell breaks
loose: Multiple notifications for the same event go out, multiple
processes are waiting for the sms_client to free up the modem, etc.
The engine/consolidate.php process uses the function
is_process_running() from lib/api.inc.php to prevent multiple runs of
consolidate.php from being executed simultaneously by cron. However,
this function doesn't work... consolidate.php calls is_process_running()
with (NULL,2) and in lib/api.inc.php, if $process_name isn't specified
(i.e. NULL), it fails back to the $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"] variable. It
looks like this variable is only available when executed from apache,
and is not set when consolidate.php is run from cron... I've done some
simple tests and each time the $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"] variable is empty
when I run things from bash (assuming it's the same with cron).
My workaround is to modify engine/consolidate.php to be more specific
about how it specifies the is_process_running() test:
--- engine/consolidate.php.orig 2006-01-05 11:45:31.581210320 -0500
+++ engine/consolidate.php 2006-01-05 11:11:27.630937992 -0500
@@ -16,7 +16,7 @@
$i = 0;
$date_start = time();
- if (is_process_running(NULL,2) === false) { //check if a
process named as myself is already running (one instance is me)
+ if (is_process_running("consolidate.php",2) === false) { //check
if a process named as myself is already running (one instance is me)
detach();
Perhaps there's a more robust solution for fixing this problem (i.e.
perhaps better self-> detection in lib/api.inc.php) but this works for
me and properly prevents consolidate.php from running more than once.
Hell is no longer breaking loose...
So long as I don't have another process running on my box with that same
name ;-)
