I forgot that PHP saves stuff in the /tmp directory (in my case
/var/www/html/tmp [with permissins/owner set accordingly].
So, it works with:
<?php
$command = "/usr/bin/espeak -g0 -ven+m3 -p22 -s170 'Hallo Toofie' -w
/var/www/html/tmp/aba.wav";
exec($command);
?>
Btw, it sounds pretty awful!

Hi,
I'm trying to utilize EXEC to have some text from a db query converted
to a wav file using 'espeak'.
The 'espeak' command works admirably by cli, but no matter what I do,
exec does not
seem to function on my Linux box, even though safe_mode is off.
I've stripped the db query out, and ran a simplified text, 'Hallo
Toofie' in the code. First off,
I made sure that the espeak code worked by cli. It does.
The code:
<?php
$command = "/usr/bin/espeak -g0 -ven+m3 -p22 -s170 'Hallo Toofie' -w
aba.wav";
exec($command);
?>
I've tried every combination I can think of including using 'espeak'
without '/usr/bin',
directing wav output to '-f /home/kronos/aba.wav'.
What am I doing wrong?
Any help, pointers, suggestions appreciated!
