I use php with apache, in the same time a crontab generate big html page from a .php source file.

#/usr/bin/php -q
<?
...
?>

, but if I use -c/usr/local/newphp to force the read of another php.ini file just for the cgi and different from the one used with php/apache it gives an error.

php -?
Usage: php [-q] [-h] [-s] [-v] [-i] [-f <file>] | {<file> [args...]}
  -q             Quiet-mode.  Suppress HTTP Header output.
  -s             Display colour syntax highlighted source.
  -f<file>       Parse <file>.  Implies `-q'
  -v             Version number
  -c<path>       Look for php.ini file in this directory
  -a             Run interactively
  -d foo[=bar]   Define INI entry foo with value 'bar'
  -e             Generate extended information for debugger/profiler
  -z<file>       Load Zend extension <file>.
  -i             PHP information
  -h             This help


-c is in the list , but not in the Usage , it should be nice to have diferent php.ini depending on scripts, excpecialy because zend optimizer works for the php/apache and not for cgi php (logically).

You need to use a space between the -c and the path. That gives no error to me. The -h output reflects this in the upcoming PHP 4.0.5

user reports:

Indeed does not give an error but it does not work, just hung-up

#!/usr/bin/php -c /home/marcello -q
<?
echo "test";
?>

where a php.ini file reside in /home/marcello and another in
/usr/local/lib

I confirm this, it's not working for me either.

This is fixed in CVS. (in PHP 4.0.7 branch)
