Have you looked into pcntl_fork() or running it in the background
via something as simple as backticks? The latter of which,
exemplified:
<?php
`/bin/env php /path/to/socket2.php --port 1234 >> /path/to/log.txt 2>&1 &`;
?>
Expanding on that, you could do something like this:
<?php
exec('/bin/env php /path/to/socket2.php --port 1234 >>
/path/to/log.txt 2>&1 &',$ret,$err);
if ($err === 0) {
exec('echo $$',$ret);
$pid = $response[0];
echo $pid.PHP_EOL;
} else {
echo 'There was an error while forking the process. Please
view the log.'.PHP_EOL;
}
?>
