    We have PHP 5.3.3 installed using cPanel WHM on our hosting, but the cli is not working properly.

    When executing the command: "php -a", all output I get is "Interactive mode enabled", but no prompt appears.

    I solved this issue in the past in a RedHat machine (this server is running under CentOS) by compiling PHP but adding the option "--with-readline".

    The phpinfo generated with the compiled PHP doesn't show such option and I couldn't find it in the wizard for recompiling PHP.

    Any ideas? Thanks in advance for the help and for taking your time =)

    cPanel Access Level:

    In the following folder:

    Code:
    /var/cpanel/easy/apache/rawopts
    Create a file called all_php5 there and put this into that file:

    Code:
    --with-readline
    Then run /scripts/easyapache --force to recompile Apache. I tested this on my machine and I get the following when entering php -a in root SSH now:

    Code:
    # php -a
Interactive shell

php >
    Prior to adding that line and recompiling Apache, php -a was not returning a prompt for php >

    Thanks a bunch =) Haven't tried it, but this should be really useful.

    I do think this should be the default on the PHP configuration... after all, who wants the cli if there's no interpreter working?

    Again, thanks.
