Re: [jplatform] CLI STDIN/STDOUT

[Mark Dexter]

For your situation you can of course just override the contstuctor in your child class. I don't know the answer about how common this issue is. Mark

Hi Folks

I wrote a little cli-app. No Problems so far on localhost (apache on windows), but it won't run on my hosting account (apche on linux).

I figured out, that's because the first if-statement in the contructor of JApplicationCli (wich is inherited from my cli class):

if (!defined('STDOUT') || !defined('STDIN') || !isset($_SERVER['argv']))
{
   $this->close();
}

On my linux-account, it seems that STDIN and STDOUT are not defined explicit by the php-cli-environment. If I commented this statement out, the script works.

So, the question (to the server-experts out there) now is:

- Is that a exception, is my hosting-account not properly configuratetd? That would be no problem, then I do a workaround in the script and/or talk to my hosting-provider.

- Or is that a common possible environment configuration? If so, then we have to change that statement in JApplicationCli, I think, to deal with those cases of server-configs too.

Any toughts, tipps and hints are welcome,
as I am not a server geek ;)

Cheers

This came up for me as well. But I also had need to use the JApplicationCli::out() method which also needs to be overridden if you plan to use it.

Sounds like it's a buggy PHP implementation on your host.

I would guess that php is compiled as  cgi where stdin and stdout are not defined.

[Bill Tomczak]

On the server where I have a cli app running, it's only an issue when the job runs via cron. Running it from a shell command line, STDIN/STDOUT are defined and usable. It may be a buggy installation of php, but since this is a server over which I have no control, and my app needs to run as a cron job, doing these couple of simple overrides was really the only viable solution.
