bjmosk Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Hello, I have a PHP script that uses exec() to kick off a separate PHP script in the background on my Linux server. The script that runs in the background generates a potentially large PDF document (50+ MB) and may take a minute or two to complete. Once it finishes, it updates a database record. I'm looking for a way to monitor the background script in case it crashes or hangs, and kill/restart it if necessary. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Brian Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/143489-monitoring-php-script-in-background/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
