I discovered they have lynx installed, and it works. So from the command line, I call 'lynx http://host/filename.php' and it executes. I see the output, then I have to quit lynx.
When I schedule this via cron, all I get in the output is:
Status: 404^M
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.1.4^M
Content-type: text/html^M
^M
No input file specified.
Ignoring the line endings, I'm assuming there's something I need to do so that lynx will execute, get the single page of output, and quit. Or is there a better way to do this?
PS: Don't tell me, "Switch to a host that knows how to set things up." I already know that, and I'm working on it.
