thanks for the response andrews. Why do you suspect of permissions issue?
I suspect permission issue because when i run the code as root user in the terminal it is generating the output file. if i run the same code in the browser it is not generating the output files . Are you trying "su www-data" and then running the exact same command? i have given www-data:www-data permission to my code as well . still it is not working. i will try to explain once again : i have a w3af script for w3af crawl - http-settings set timeout 60 back plugins crawl web_spider crawl config web_spider set only_forward False set follow_regex .*http:/localhost.* set ignore_regex (?i)(logout|disconnect|signout|exit)+ back output text_file output config text_file set output_file /var/www/wsafe1/scanreports/crawl_localhost_222222222.txt set verbose False back back target set target http://localhost:80 back start exit i have called this script in my php code i.e : <? $w3af_script="/var/www/wsafe1/crawl_localhost_222222222.w3af"; echo "Start of code ::*****"; if(is_readable($w3af_script)) { echo "\n"."ready to execute the script in the terminal"; `python /var/www/wsafe1/tools/w3af/w3af_console -s $w3af_script`; } if(is_readable("/var/www/wsafe1/scanreports/crawl_localhost_222222222.txt")) { echo "-----OOOOOOOOOOOoutput file got generated "; } else echo "-----FFFFailed to generate the outpt file "; ?> now problem is , i am not getting the file generated if i run the code from the browser or by normal user. root user is able to generate the files using the same code . please help me out !!!!!
