Daemon tool to run PHP script in Linux.
Put this in a file (called, say, runphp.sh): (create this file wherever you want and run it)
vim runphp.sh (insert following code)
#!/bin/bash
while [ 1 ]; do
sleep 10
php5 ~/script.php
done
save and exit file
OR If you are using thrid party apache server like Xampp… then
Code:
#!/bin/bash
while [ 1 ]; do
sleep 10
/opt/lampp/bin/php /opt/lampp/htdocs/script.php
done
save and exit
—————————————————————
Then run: Code:
# nohup bash runphp.sh& echo $! >phpid.txt
—————————————————————-
Check error :- cat nohup.out
—————————————————————-
That will just run in the background (even if you close the terminal window), and when you want to close it, just run:
Code:
kill $(<~/phpid.txt)
Explanation of above command : If you want to stop the script then open phpid.txt file find out the Process ID and execute below command
Kill -9 Process ID
