[>] I've installed the CVS version and setup an environment var in the Apache config as needed, with the gretl config in /etc/gretl. I ensured gretl is coming back as version 1.9.11cvs and the apache env var is set correctly, the /etc/gretl dir is owned by apache. After all of this, I no longer get the errors in the PHP error log but the results file is still not being created. I'm writing to /tmp with full permissions set so I know it's not a permission problem (both gretl and apache can write to this directory). As before, when I run the exact same command on the command line using any user account, the output file is created successfully, however from within PHP and Apache, it is never created. Is there some way to get more information, debugging or otherwise, on what gretl is doing when trying to create this output file? Or can I extract the results some other way than in an output file perhaps? At this point I need to start looking at alternative methods if the output file is not going to work. I reviewed the document explaining using gretl with PHP/Apache, but I don't notice the use of an output file anywhere in there. Could you try something that creates an output file to see if it works as intended for you? I've included a basic sample command and data file below. Command File: # cat commandFile open /tmp/dataFile.csv ols pHours 0 period outfile /tmp/resultsFile --append genr cHours = (0) genr bHours = (period) outfile --close exit Data File: # less dataFile.csv pHours, period 4.4734735122401,0 7.8034735122401,1 4.0814735122401,2 3.8934735122401,3 4.5601401789071,4
