Problem with command line scripts

[lpa]

Trying just this:

#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
include("./index.php");
echo 'here we go';

 

I get this error:

 

Error Exception: DB connect error 2002 - No such file or directory (in /Library/WebServer/Documents/pw22/wire/core/ProcessWire.php line 95)

 

I am on Mac OS X 10.6 with PW 2.2.9. 

 

I don't understand what goes wrong?

Are you running MAMP or something like that?

If so, /usr/bin/php is not your PHP (at least, not the one you want). You probably want your script pointing to something like: /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.3.6/bin/php (depending on what PHP version you have)

Thanks for your help again!

The problem was that I am using not the Apple provided php but something installed in /usr/local/php5/bin/php. And I didn't remember this, because I haven't used the PHP CLI much.
