from the php documentation:
Filesystem is the default wrapper used with PHP and represents the
local filesystem. When a relative path is specified (a path which does
not begin with /, \, \\, or a Windows drive letter) the path provided
will be applied against the current working directory. In many cases
this is the directory in which the script resides unless it has been
changed. Using the CLI sapi, this defaults to the directory from which
the script was called. 

That means, you should probably change to the script directory before
calling the command line script.
