You cannot run a C program and grab input from PHP interactively! You would have to pipe the input in as so: // untested! $number = `echo $someNumber | /var/www/TestScanf`; echo 'number in php<br />'; Also, returning the number num in C's main function is wrong. You should return 0 if successful and another int if the program has an error.
