You're right, i should think a while before posting such a wrong
answer. Have confused it with $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] which isn't
available from cli call.

@steve:
Forgott what i wrote, you're problem is not $_SERVER variable. Maybe
setting current working directory to your root directory (/var/www/
html/) could be a sollution.
