ibase_pconnect() and command line

[Anon]

I am calling interbase connection by using ibase_pconnect($host, $username, $password) or ibase_connect($host, $username, $password) from command line.

I got fatal error: ibase_pconnect() or ibase_connect() are not defined function.

It seems that ibase_connect() are not defined for the commandline running.

Is that possible that they are defined for browser running not for command line running? And my database is sitting on another server. If it is path error, it should give me path error message not undefined funciton error. Plus, it is fine if i run it from browser.

Any one run php with database connection statements from command line (specially interbase)? Help!

It is a silly mistake.

I have two copies of php.ini. The brower running php calling the php.ini in Winnt folder.

But the command line running php call the php.ini in php4 folder first. And this php.ini is not configured. Which got me the error in running php from command line.
