LinuxQuestions.org - Q: Run a sh script in httpdoc

Hello, first I thank anyone who try to get me up of this Q.

I have a script to start/stop a prog ( /usr/bin/Pro.d1) this script locate in /var/script1.sh.

Code:

 #!/bin/sh

PRONAME="MyPro" 



start_pro ()

{

/usr/bin/Pro.d1 &

sleep 2

}

# This method stops MyPro

stop_pro ()

{

killall Pro.d1

}

case "$1" in

start)

echo "[SCRIPT] $1: $PRONAME"

start_pro

;;

stop)

echo "[SCRIPT] $1: $PRONAME"

stop_pro

;;

restart)

echo "Restaring $PRONAME"

stop_pro

start_pro

;;

*)

"$0" stop

exit 1

;;

esac

exit 0

what I want is a PHP file (eg: index.php) that will execute the /var/script1.sh

I try one :

Code:

<?php 

$return = exec("/var/script1.sh"); 

echo "Executing Status: $return"; 

?>

but Unfortunately the file wouldn't run or maybe the exec() was disabled.

Any ideas

Thanks
