CLI include paths to run zend framework via cron
- by summerg
I wrote a command line utility using Zend Framework to do some nightly reporting. It uses a ton of the same functionality the accompanying site. It works great when I run it by hand, but when I run it on cron I have include path issues. Seems like it should be easily fixed with set_include_path, but maybe I'm missing something?
My directory structure looks like this:
/var/www/clientname/
application
Globals.php
commandline
commandline_bootstrap.php
public_html
public_bootstrap.php
library
Zend
In public_bootstrap.php I use set_include_path without a problem, relative to the current directory:
set_include_path('../library' . PATH_SEPARATOR . get_include_path());
If I understand correctly, in commandline_bootstrap.php I need to put in the absolute path, so cron knows where everything is. My file starts like this:
error_reporting(E_ALL);
set_include_path('/var/www/clientname/library' . PATH_SEPARATOR . get_include_path());
require_once "../application/Globals.php";
But when I run it via cron I get the following error:
PHP Fatal error: require_once():
Failed opening required
'../application/Globals.php'
(include_path='/var/www/clientname/library/')
in
/var/www/clientname/commandline/zfcli.php
on line 11
I think PHP is accepting my new path, because when I run it command line and dump the phpinfo I can see:
include_path =
/var/www/clientname/library/:.:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php
= .:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php
I admit the syntax here looks a little strange, but I can’t figure out how to fix it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
