Use shell_exec

Hi
I can use shell_exec without codeigniter with below code
test.php in root :

PHP Code:

file_put_contents('temp.txt',json_encode($argv)); 


And call this file with below code :

PHP Code:

shell_exec("php test.php 'names' > /dev/null 2>/dev/null &")); 


But cannot use for codeigniter
Example :
localhost/users/remove
Try to use

PHP Code:

shell_exec("php index.php/users/remove 'names' > /dev/null 2>/dev/null &")); 


Not working
Thanks

Are you getting any errors or warnings? Have you tried exec() instead?

return null result
Is it right code?

Read below, look for all the problems users were having with path problems.

PHP NET - shell_exec


You may need to set your path up for it to work.

What did you Try? What did you Get? What did you Expect?

Thanks but my problem is path

In that read it shows you how to see what path shell_exec is pointing to
and then how to change it.
