php code via the command line on windows

Hello,

I need to execute some php code through the command line on windows, like:

from remote a script is executed to post some vars with GET, after these vars are checked this vars need to beused in a scripty which has to be executed throuhj the commanline.

I tried already the dos box and executed this code succesfully:
"php myfile.php"

how to do that via a a script?

I tried this code but nothing is happen:
exec("php myfile.php");

I executed the script via the browser...

Maybe CURL?

BTW the exec ("php .... wont work because you don't add the path to the php.exe file.

Does this helps? (Still I am not sure what you want to do)

Code:

<?php
while ( true )
{
    //curl the remote script here
}

I can't follow you

It looks like that the script must be executed by CLI and not CGI that's why I need this, since there server oinly need to execute one script I shpuld change the config. Is it possible to run php in cli mode and access the scripts via the browser?

My script is working (the thumbnail thing) but in some cases it doesn't work via the regular way, But if I run the script via the command line it works fine. (don't ask me why its just a workarround)

Ok, and when do you want to run it from CLI?

I mean this will be triggered from another php script, or it will be croned?

I think I will run this (only) script always in CLI mode or is this bad?

the script will running on request if someone is calling for a thumb...

try to exec but with both paths. eg.

exec ("c:\php\php.exe c:\htdocs\myscript.php");

Does this works?

That was the problem I am sure....

nope doesn't work...

I tried already the system command to echo some text to the browser and this is fine, but executing a complexer script doesn't work

Maybe the script is using something that wont work from CLI.

Common problems to this is the include path. Try to use the  set_include_path() function in the script that you are executing to assing the correct paths (it wants full paths)

Also check if you are using the $_SERVER variable as this is not working with CLI.

I understand, the strange thing is it's working fine if I enter that manually in the dos box:

Code:

c:\wwwroot\htdocs\folder>php test.php
