Bug: CLI request from command line

[bedrijfsportaal]

Direction Trying to run the CLI command through Visual studio code or CMD but zero response from the output that has been set. To be shure i've created an empty file with default index and an echo with text 'test'. This still doesn't respond in any way.

Describe the bug No response or execution on the coding when executing the controller/method through CMD.

command: php index.php cronjob index

Example:

namespace App\Controllers;

use App\Controllers\BaseController;

class Cronjob extends BaseController
{
    public function index()
    {
        echo 'test';
    }
}

CodeIgniter 4 version 4.1.3

Expected behavior, and steps to reproduce if appropriate A response as the documentation stated: Documentation command line

Context

• CI: 4.1.3
  • OS: Windows 10
  • PHP version: 8.0.7

index.php doesn't normally exit with a status code as it is intended primarily in web requests. Have you tried adding an exit call in your index() method?

 namespace App\Controllers;

 use App\Controllers\BaseController;

 class Cronjob extends BaseController
 {
     public function index()
     {
        echo 'test';
+       exit(0);
     }
 }

Just tested this, but still no response in the command line, it's weird because i do remember this working in a earlier version of CI4.

EDIT: Did some more testing on what it accepts from the command line, but it seems it cannot do anything after index.php, some examples.

http://localhost:8080/cronjob/index < visiting this url will output test php index.php hello world < non-existing, no response php index.php?hello=world < generated an error; could not open input file index.php?hello=world

Maybe this will help?

Call: php index.php hello=world

In your case: php public/index.php cronjob index

[bedrijfsportaal]

Call: php index.php hello=world

In your case: php public/index.php cronjob index

This doesn't work either, if the command is php public/index.php cronjob=index it returns a 404 not found. The response on this command is Cronjob=index is not a valid controller name.

I'm having a weird feeling i;m missing some extension to handle this but have no clue what that is...

you don't need the "=", just call: php public/index.php cronjob if you have index as the default method.

If not jus use php public/index.php cronjob index

php public/index.php cronjob

Same issue, no response in the command line. Expecting the test back but nothing is responding

Also php public/index.php cronjob index no response

[jldorta]

Try to do return "test";

instead of: echo 'test';

Same issue, have been trying many things but in earlier versions echo wasn't an issue. Feel like something has been changed because my Linux (Ubuntu 20.x) server has the same issue, it's not just my Windows 10 machine.

[jldorta]

I just replicate the same conditions on my Mac and it works perfectly with both echo and return.

It appears to be something else.

Are you trying to use just the terminal or you are using something else to make the call?

[bedrijfsportaal]

Using my Visual Studio code terminal, CMD terminal, Putty terminal (for my server). Nothing is responding, Did you use the same PHP version, have a feeling that is causing this issue. I'm using PHP 8.0.7 also on my server.

Just tested in PHP 8.0.7. It Works!

So what is missing in my case, because my Ubuntu server is facing the same issue...

If you give me restricted access to your server I can check It for you. Send me a PM

[bedrijfsportaal]

My server works with SSH keys and is restricted on 2 firewalls, to open this up i'll need to check a lot of things to keep my clients save. From the list above you did not see anything missing? That's the .ini for my Windows 10 machine.

I've activated every last one of them, except for oci8_12c oci8_19 pdo_firebird and pdo_oci but still no response. I'm stuck at this point because i've got no clue what is going on, thinking about setting up a dev server with ubuntu and give you access to that because i'm at a dead end right now..

Make a fresh copy of Codeigniter and just add the Cronjob controller with the code you post. Start from there. If you want to give me access I can help you. Just let me know.

Ok so it seems to be an issue related to my installation, can confirm it is working on a default installation with the same .env file. Looks like i've got some debugging to work on, thank you so much for the reply and feedback on my personal issue!
