PHP CLI hangs after executing the example code.

[ThePureCC]

Running everything on raspberry pi 3b with latest updates.

Trying to run the example code from the README file.

$ php chat.php

It gets stuck here forever after executing the php command.

No error, no nothing.

Anything I'm doing wrong?

Are you referring to this example: http://socketo.me/docs/hello-world?

@mbonneau I'm having the same issue. Regarding both that example and the current one in this project's README.

Running the script from CLI, as well as with php error reporting on, ... and it just ... nothing. blank. it just hangs.

@mbonneau Thanks for the reply, I gave that up hours later. All codes related to the library hangs in CLI for no reason. Exactly what @paamayim is experiencing as well. I went on to other scripts.

@pureche I got everything to work with the example script from socketo, modified to my needs. I think I had incorrectly assumed that there would be an opening CLI status message or something. Maybe that's what you're experiencing as well.
There's no message at all until a client connects. Maybe this is normal, although it's not helpful.

@paamayim I actually tried to put some echos in there to just make sure it's not hanging, and mine was ... maybe we had different problems. idk, but congrats. Glad to hear yours is working.

@pureche - If you are running the chat-server.php, that is not designed to exit. Everything happens in $server->run().
