"nohup" and "proc_open()" do not work as there is no way to properly detach the launched process from the current process. Instead, see recipe to start a background process by Colin McKinnon at http://symcbean.blogspot.it/2010/02/php-and-long-running-processes.html My implementation based on this idea is the OfflineJob class, where a background process can be lauched, an univocal ticket is returned, and its current status can be retrieved; stdin can be set and stdout, stderr can be retrieved: http://www.icosaedro.it/phplint/phplint2/doc/stdlib/it/icosaedro/web/OfflineJob.html Regards, ___ /_|_\ Umberto Salsi \/_\/ www.icosaedro.it
