Re: Run PHP from CLI/PASE?

Thanks Charles & Aaron,

That was exactly what I was looking for. I think it was throwing me off because it was in the zendsvr folder.

For the job scheduler, I should be able to put "QSH CMD('/usr/local/zendsvr6/bin/php /scripts/php/fetchXMLforETL.php')" I haven't tried this, but wanted verification first.

Eventually, I'll probably create a QSH script, as Charles eluded to, to run multiple scripts an sequential order. But needed to start somewhere.

Thanks guys.

PASE is more or less AIX.

I am relatively new to working on the iSeries. In the past (for a
previous non-IBMi employer), I've written PHP scripts on a Linux server
that would perform ETL functions on a web service and store the data to
local SQL server. The PHP script would not require a web server and run
from the CLI via cron. In the cronjob, I would call "0 1 * * *
/usr/bin/php /opt/scripts/fetchXMLData.php" every morning at 1:00am. I
would like to do the same on the iSeries to eliminate the need of building
a linux server, but I'm not sure how to call PHP and the script from
CLI/PASE; which would eventually be called from WRKJOBSCDE. Can anyone
point me in a direction; if this is even possible?
