====== Get APPLICATION_ENV on CRON ======

For (linux)command-line only usage you could add following line to your ''~/.bashrc''\\

''export APPLICATION_ENV="development"''\\
Or add the line to ''/etc/profile'' to set the environment variable for all users.\\

===== From a crontab =====

Cron uses a clean/empty environment and doesn't look at ''/etc/profile'' or ''~/.bashrc'' for the **APPLICATION_ENV** or other environment variables.\\

==== Just define the environment variable inside the crontab: ====
<code>
APPLICATION_ENV=development
0 0 * * *   /usr/bin/php /path/to/your_script.php
</code>
