won't it? what does it do? does it go into and endless loop and bring your machine to a halt
by any chance? .. because by looking at it, as long as $in['bg'] is not set and not equal to
true it's going to keep spawning sub-shells with cmdlines that call itself.
Me:
You haven't read my message? It works fine when Im running it from the shell
When I do:
`/usr/local/bin/php /www/admin.gammacash.com/test/test_fork.php bg=1 2>&1 /var/log/test.log &`
you can see bg=1
its the passing arguments!
any other suggestions?

I'm guessing that the pcntl extension is not compiled into the
webserver php SAPI,
it's a really big guess because you didn't supply the code you use to
do the forking with.
Ok then you want to have the fork code!
'want' is putting it strongly - unless of course your handing out AudiRS4's
in which case 'want' is spot on.
I'm doing a complete example
====================
My script is forking on itself.
So from my browser I go on:
http://localhost/test_fork.php
My code in test_fork.php is :
<?
$in = get_shell_args($_SERVER['argv']); // DONT PAY ATTENTION TO THAT
does $_SERVER['argv'] exist at all? does your error reporting include E_NOTICE?
what is the value of the ini setting 'register_argc_argv'?
FUNCTION, it a made home function
if($in['bg']) {
print "HERE"; sleep(30);
}
else {
print "forking";
`/usr/local/bin/php /www/admin.gammacash.com/test/test_fork.php bg=1
2>&1 /var/log/test.log &`
}
?>
So Im assuming that the fork will get the bg argument, in this case I
should receive "HERE" in /var/log/test.log (did tail -f
/var/log/test.log while I was running the script)
I've put a sleep 30 seconds to get the fork PID number.
no idea how the sleep() will help.
Unfortunately, when I do execute test_fork.php from the web, it wont
execute itself in background.

This method was running fine with my old config.
The script works perfectly because if Im executing test_fork.php from
the shell, the fork is working fine!
and what is the value of the ini setting 'register_argc_argv' when running
via the php CLI SAPI?
