Hi All :)

I have a php script that I am attempting to run from the CLI to
connect to a MySQL database and update a field. but when I run it
with this command: php cronjob.php it prints out the script on screen
but doesn't process it...

Running: php-r"phpinfo();" prints out the standard phpinfo screen..
and I don't think I should have to write it differently to make it
run from the command line right?

HELP! I'm desperate... I would offer to name my first born after
you... But he's already been born :)

Maybe you can show use some code?

@mysql_connect('localhost', 'user', 'password') or die("Cannot connect to DB!" . mysql_error()); @mysql_select_db('ticklers') or die("Cannot select DB!" . mysql_error ());


$sql="UPDATE tasks SET completed='0'";
mysql_query($sql);

also when looking at the code, I noticed that I didn't have the opening and closing php tags ... Now I do and I'm getting an error :)

cannot connect to DB!Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)qs:/volumes/raider/webserver/ documents/tests/ticklers japruim$


This is only from the commandline... running the script straight in a browser doesn't show any errors... and it works just fine.
