Nothing more useful than that. PHP_INFO tells me that it sees the MS SQL ini file and the MS SQL configuration settings are displayed further down the list. The username and password work in the script because I am able to connect using the exact same script from the command line. -----Original Message----- From: bruce [mailto:bedouglas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, November 03, 2005 7:28 PM To: 'David Tulloh'; 'Robbert van Andel' Cc: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: PHP from the command line what's the error that you're getting from the web php app... also, what do you get from the php_info() for the web app? this tells you a great deal of information regarding your php/web setup (if you didn't already know!) get us the information and we can help track down your issue... also, is there a user/passwd setup to access the mssql db? -bruce -----Original Message----- From: David Tulloh [mailto:david.tulloh@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, November 03, 2005 6:22 PM To: Robbert van Andel Cc: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: PHP from the command line Many linux distributions use a different php config file for the apache and cli versions.
