Description

We should run some environment checks from the CLI:

The CLI may have different configuration that the webserver (and this is common in some distros).

See chatlog for one case of safe_mode on CLI causing problems.

T11178: Some linters fail without a pathway forward if the PHP "xml" extension is not installed
Z1336: General Chat
T10849: Support query timeouts via `max_statement_time` or MYSLQI_ASYNC
T10586: Call to undefined function mysql_real_escape_string()

epriestley added a project: Setup.

T8818 was a specific example of a user hitting open_basedir issues.

T7248 was a case of a user with neither the mysql nor mysqli extensions installed.

T10586 is likely a second case (similar to T7248) of a user without mysql or mysqli.

T12941 is a third case of a user with no mysql or mysqli.

https://discourse.phabricator-community.org/t/activities-notifications-spam/3286/ is likely a case where curl was not installed on the CLI, but was installed in the web SAPI.
