Cron Job Errors Working Script -

[rgermain]

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone had any information on what could be wrong.
I have a script that check my email and then sends another email telling me how many emails that are in that mail box. This works fine if I run it through a browser and manually open it myself. However, when I run i through a cron job I get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imap_open() in
/usr/home/mysite/public_html/mail_checker.php on line 16

Again, I do not get this error when I open this page normally in a browser and it does send my an email like it should.

The command I used was given to me by my host.

If anyone has any ideas, that would be great thanks!

some commercial web hosts (like mine) require using the PHP CLI binary when running cron jobs. perhaps the regular PHP binary on your host supports IMAP but the CLI version does not? just a guess.
