How to Fix 'SCRIPT_NAME' while run php script using php-cgi?

Question

I am trying to run below php file using Putty in wordpress.

php-cgi -f info.php

But this command throw this error Undefined index: SCRIPT_NAME.

Server Setting:

 #fastcgi_param HTTPS $fastcgi_https; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; include fastcgi_params;

Please help me to fix this issue.

Could it be that SCRIPT_NAME and SCRIPT_FILENAME aren't the same thing? — mrjink

I think both are different. SCRIPT_NAME its file name and SCRIPT_FILENAME is the full path of file — Addy

You missed the intent of my comment. The undefined index is for SCRIPT_NAME, while you pass SCRIPT_FILENAME to the params. — mrjink

We are getting issue on wp-includes/load.php on line100. here is code: // Fix for Dreamhost and other PHP as CGI hosts if ( strpos( $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], 'php.cgi' ) !== false ) — Addy

It is usually defined as fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name; inside the fastcgi_params file. — Richard Smith

There was an update to nginx or php (can't remember which broke it), but you need two entries in your fastcgi_params:

fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name;

At least, that's how -we- fixed it here. Give it a shot and let me know :)
