Hi Kevin,
Thanks very much for your reply, but I'm having no luck with it. In
the test that I'm doing, I'm using the same code as you provided. It's on a
Solaris system & the permissions & ownership of the shell script is correct.
The shell script is also located in the same directory as the php file. All
the shell script is doing is creating a file & works grand when run from the
command line. Have you any ideas/thoughts on this? I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks
Dave

if you have a shell script called blah.sh
$script = 'blah.sh';
exec($script);
system($script); // my favourite
or if you like you could do
`blah.sh` // backticks
