CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

We have a 3.3.5 site hosted by civihosting on the server which supports ssh.

We have noticed that the CiviMail crons are failing because even though we are running the cron via a URL the script still receives $argv, but the CiviCRM Root is not defined at this point.

// you can run this program either from an apache command, or from the cli
if (isset($argv)) {
  require_once ("bin/cli.php");
  $cli=new civicrm_cli ();
  //if it doesn't die, it's authenticated
I think this must be because the server appears to be running FAST CGI - is there any position on whether CiviCRM is compatible with this?

Server API CGI/FastCGI

running the cli is hitting memory issues. I seem to have improved it using -d memory_limit but not enough

So,

if (isset($sapi)) {


?

The php config on debian/ubuntu are different for the cgi/cli/apache

Likely that you updated the memory in one ini and not the other. Feel free to put the memory higher on cli than on cgi/apache: that's only when you run big processes that it runs anyway.

if (isset($sapi)) {

Exactly. Could you test if it works for you ? Will submit the patch if this is the case.

I copied this from the other script

if ( php_sapi_name() == "cli" ) {

& it works to the extent that I can send by URL now - I assume that it still works from CLI ....
