Hi,
I won't be redundant by saying I'm new to PHP, so I won't :)
The following code works by doing;
php file.php
contents of file.php;
<?php
exec('/usr/bin/ssh user@host "nohup perl /perlscript&"');
?>
* I config'd this ssh user to not need a password, copied its key.
I place this file off of web root and point my browser to web root
and type
the file name;
http://mywebroot/file.php
but it doesn't exe.
I'm not expecting to see a screen full, but I check to see if the
perl
script runs on the remote host, and it doesn't.
All is well from a CLI.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated,
PHP runs as a different user in a web server, usually nobody but it
depends on how your system has been set up. Given that it should be
obvious that the keys you've set up for the user you run it as from
the command line will not be used from the web server.
Hope that gives you enough info to solve the problem.
