In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. for windows: cgi binary was always php.exe and placed in (phpdir)/php.exe. cli binary was php-cli.exe from 4.2.0 - 4.2.3 placed in (phpdir)/php-cli.exe starting with 4.3.0 the cli changed its name and location to (phpdir)/cli/php.exe. for linux: the name of any binary was allways php Only RC versions of 4.3 had diiferent names, no need to document. The different names for windows are now documented at http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.php Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-31 15:48:52] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This brings up a good point. We should document when CLI and CGI had different names as there used to be php-cgi.exe and/or php-cli.exe and/or php.exe, and in linux wasn't there a binary named php-cli at somepoint as well? Whatever the exact case may be, this all involves the PHP 4.2 branch when CLI was experimental. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-31 12:37:54] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Actually, it's: {phpdir}/php.exe (CGI) {phpdir}/cli/php.exe (CLI) This is documented at features.commandline.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-31 08:59:38] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This bug has been fixed in CVS.

The final descision was made: The php cgi binary is /php4/php.exe. This one is intended to be used with webservers. /php4/cli/php-cli.exe is the CLI Version of php intended to use for commandline scripting.

I am on the way to update the docs. They will show up soon on the website. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
