1) was OK, but 2) didn't return anything, not even an error... this has started me thinking, and when using -ni it works...! -n makes PHP-cli ignore the .ini file. When looking at my .ini file, the modification date is July 31st, the day it all stopped working. I need to leave now, but will investigate tomorrow to see what's up with my .ini files, on both machines, and check if my scripts run with -n or after tweaking of the .ini.
