I run MAMP on my Mac at home, but on my work machine (Win7) I just started using MAMP for Windows so that I'm running the same (relatively speaking) software between the two machines. I was running some commands from the command line yesterday and noticed that the script was throwing errors because the mbstring extension wasn't loaded. I did some digging and am left scratching my head now...
In the browser, everything works fine. When I check the phpinfo, it's loading the configuration file just fine and mbstring is enabled. When I switch to the command line though, mbstring isn't in the list of modules (php -m). Also, when I do a php --ini, it tells me that no configuration file was loaded. I've added the correct PHP version to my PATH and running php -v gives me the version I expect, so I'm not really sure why PHP on the command line is acting differently from PHP in the browser.
Has anyone run into this before? How do I make PHP on the command line load the same configuration file that the browser is using?
