Non-Web vBulletin Powered Script

[zethon]

NOTE: I just posted this in the wrong forum. Sorry. :hurt:

I have a script that I want to run as a cron job and that needs to be vBulletin enabled. This scriptwill be ran by my server's cron system and the not the built in vBulletin cron system.

I'm running into a problem whenever I try to include "global.h", like below:

<?php
require_once('./global.php');
echo "Hello World";
?>

I'm getting HTML output, which contains the following error:

Unable to add cookies, header already sent

I'm guessing that something in global.php is expecting a browser. Is there anyway to include the vBulletin framework in a console script?

I use this in one and works fine. Script is in forumhome so you will need to alter the path to suite your needs if it's located elsewhere.


error_reporting(0);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'scriptname');
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('SKIP_SESSIONCREATE', 1);
define('SESSION_BYPASS', 1);
define('NOCOOKIES', 1);
define('DIE_QUIETLY', 1);
define('DIR', (dirname(__FILE__)));
chdir(DIR);
$globaltemplates = array();
$specialtemplates = array();
$actiontemplates = array();
$phrasegroups = array();
require_once DIR . '/global.php';
