Error: spawn php-cgi ENOENT

[heimdallrj]

I am getting this error message when I tried run a php script with this;

{ Error: spawn php-cgi ENOENT
    at exports._errnoException (util.js:1026:11)
    at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:182:32)
    at onErrorNT (internal/child_process.js:348:16)
    at _combinedTickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:74:11)
    at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:98:9)
  code: 'ENOENT',
  errno: 'ENOENT',
  syscall: 'spawn php-cgi',
  path: 'php-cgi',
  spawnargs: [] }

Appreciate if one has an idea what cause this error. :)

Install php-cgi (usually part of php package)

I am getting this same error, I am trying to use this module to serve a wordpress site locally on mac osx.
I have php-cgi installed via homebrew on mac,

PHP 5.4.45 (cgi-fcgi) (built: Jan 18 2017 11:32:40)
Copyright (c) 1997-2014 The PHP Group

$ which php-cgi
/usr/local/bin/php-cgi

Yea same here, I have PHP installed via homebrew on Mac but still get the same error.

I've got the same error while running the example.js on linux, and php-cgi is installed (npm install --save php-cgi)

`/node_modules/sphp$ node example.js
events.js:160
throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
^

For what its worth, I was able to get the error to go away by doing

• sudo apt-get install php-cgi

Ive solved this error on my MacOS High Sierra, simply appending a full-path to php-cgi:

I think this error is cause the node-php\main.js[child.spawn] isnt finding the php-cgi by $PATH

Note: i have tried all kind of installations of php and different versions, but the error has persist, then i solved with the full-path(solution of image) in node-php version 0.0.1

Cool this worked.

sudo apt-get install php-cgi

On a second thought it will be nice to get the paths for php/cgi dynamic from a config file with a default for system, if not specified.
