I am using CLI PHP to run a PHP script, c:\wamp\php\php.exe, but
instead of executing my script, it's actually displaying the raw code
instead.

How can I run my code using CLI PHP? I installed WAMP5 on WinXP.


Thanx
Phil

Your code must be surrounded with <?php and ?>, just like in a web page.

install.php is indeed surrounded with PHP tags, just like in a web
page. As I can see when I do "php -q install.php" and see the source
code instead of the executions.

Then it should work. Or at least it does on every system I've used.

But since you haven't posted the script or anything else about your
installation, any answer is a guess.

I tried with a very simple one-liner script:

<?php

print_r("hello world");

?>

And that is exactly what I see instead of "hello world"

You said earlier that your code was "surrounded with PHP tags", but what you
have posted has no ending tag.

blah.php:

<?php print_r("hello world"); ?>

That is literally what I have. The end tag didn't paste onto this
message thread for some wacko reason, however, it still prints out
source code instead of "hello world"

OK, and you are entering from a command line:

php example.php

-q shouldn't affect the execution of the program, but you should try
leaving it off.

Also, ensure you don't have ANY other file with the filename "php" - it
could be php.exe, php.bat or php.com, for instance.

Oh yes there was. Please do not trust Google Groups in this... It has the
tendancy to replace ?> on the first line to a simple >

Unfortunately, I have no further insights for the OP.

Nope, all there is is php.exe, I checked

Well, if everything is as you say, it should work. It does on every
system I've used.

Obviously there is something else going on, or something you're not
telling us - probably because you don't know - but there's something
different.

It does work.

What version of PHP are you using? If you're using PHP 4, then you need =
to =

use the php-cli.exe executable, rather than php.exe. Also, there is a CL=
I =

related DLL that needs to be in the same directory.

Also, is your PHP installation running on a server? If so, do you have t=

I am using WAMP5, if that helps you any. I have to use this option to
get it to work:

php -d short_open_tag=on -q "/path/to/my.php"
