I'm running lighttpd 1.4.35 on Debian 8.2. I have a very simple html file with php code (php5) which calls a bash script and prints the output:
<html>
<body>
<?php
$res = shell_exec("/var/www/html/run.sh");
echo $res . " is the result";
?>
</body>
</html>
If that html file is called on firefox, the output is
is the result
If I directly run php with that file (php index.php), the output is
<html>
<body>
13.00
is the result</body>
</html>
So, where does the result get lost?
edit: The webpage source code from firefox is
<html>
<body>
is the result</body>
</html>
edit: solved. bash script uses '~' which expands to wrong directory when the script is run from webserver.
