PHP-CLI script doesn't know $_SERVER when called by Apache?

Question

here's a weird one:

I have a PHP-CLI script that runs just fine when called from a shell.

But when I have apache execute it via system() it seems to forget about all the superglobals (or at least $_SERVER) (they are 1/true).

Any ideas on where that's coming from?

Answer 1

The readline extension was the badguy.

Deactivated it and it works.
