run bash scripts with php

by **penguino** » Tue Oct 30, 2012 3:54 am

hello, i would lilke to create a page with links that will run sh files (bash scripts), for personal use.
I have installed lampp on my linux machine and able to run php files on it.
I'm not familiar with php and had no luck so far with getting it done.

Thank you.

An html file to run the php in a link

Code: Select all: <html> <title></title> <a href="2.php">run tmp.sh</a> </html>

and the php file

Code: Select all: <? exec('sh tmp.sh'); ?>

and finally the sh file which just prints out a line in the terminal.

But nothing happens when i press on the link

thank you for the reply, however i'm not sure i got this..

do i need to copy the sh file to the /bin/bash folder for it to run through the php?
and why what you wrote has to run two php files?
