I once found a way to disable session logging by php -a, php's interactive shell. How do I turn it back on? Is there a way to send logging to another, file besides ~/.php_history? I think I may have sent the output to /dev/null.
edit: It apparently still saves to the .php_history file. It doesn't save until you exit completely from the shell. I would still like to know how move the history logging to another file.
No, currently (5.3.10 ubuntu) the filename ~/.php_history is hardcoded in the php source code. Watch :
sapi/cli/php_cli.c (line 1127)
If you really need the history file in another location you can use a symbolic link. eg :
touch /tmp/.php_history
ln -s /tmp/.php_history /home/your_name/.php_history
You might also consider sending a feature request to the php developers. They might introduce a php.ini directive for this.
