P.S. I am posting a form to the test1.php page with a valid account_id etc.;
after re-reading the message I thought someone might think it's printing
that result because nothing is posted.
Update:
I also found a file called "error_log" in the folder where test2.php
resides, full of several of these lines:
[01-May-2007 14:12:52] PHP Warning: Zend Optimizer does not support this
version of PHP - please upgrade to the latest version of Zend Optimizer in
Unknown on line 0
Could that have something to do with why the script is calling on itself
instead of running the specified php script?
I recently had the hosting company rebuild PHP, first they did
--enable-suexec (to run PHP as CGI) and then later rebuilt again to
--enable-pcntl and --enable-sigchild, as I thought I would be needing that
functionality. Did that break the CLI?
Please help, Thx.
Brad
It seems that the php binary isn't the same version as the php library
used in the webserver and so that there's a problem loading Zend. Are
you sure that the PHP binary is also replaced when they reinstalled
PHP?
