Cron Fails in Windows Environment

[dmssmgr]

CRON.BAT as follows:

cd E:\Inetpub\wwwroot\sugarcrm
E:\PHP\php.exe -f cron.php > /dev/null 2>&1
E:\PHP\php.exe -c E:\WINNT\php.ini -f cron.php

I get the following FATAL ERROR:

Call to a member function on a non-object in ...SugarBean.php on line 664

$query .= $field."='".$GLOBALS['db']->quote(from_html($this->$field))."'";

I am getting the same error running the cron.php from a linux command prompt. it ran once successfully (or rather: there were no errors). now it continues with that exact error. I did some research and found some info (on a dotproject forum) stating its a php5 issue and that the file in querstion needs to be included. I actually have php 4.4.0, and I dont know anythingthing about php coding, anyone have any guidance?

My exact error is:
"Fatal Error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /pathtosugar/data/SugarBean.php on line 779"

mine is a new install of sugarcrm 4.2.1
trying to import emails ( a way cool feature, cant wait to see it work!)
thanks!

I'm pretty sure this is fixed by the 4.2.1a patch; try upgrading to that version.

yes! just applied the patch (4.2.1a) and imported my test emails a-ok, thanks!


(oh - this is on linux that is.. hopefully this does the trick for the OP - on windows)
