Thanks Paul for your response. my issue is not just reading from the output
text file. But my issue is what I would do in the php script while the
program is execting( i.e after issueing shell_exec() command) and how would
i know that file has been written so that i can read it using php.
Not having read the rest of the thread, the script would issue the
exec() or shell_exec() command and continue only when the command has
finished. You can see this (on Unix) by this code:
<?php
exec('sleep 60');
?>
In effect, this script will wait 60 seconds before ending.
