RainMailer · 02-11-2004, 08:19 AM

Hey guys! I would like to write a shell script that opens sub shells to run multiple commands at one time. What i need the script to do is start for ex: 1.php then 2.php then 3.php . Can anyone help?

Thanks in Advance!

I have 5 php scripts that I would like to code a shell script to run all the php scripts at the same time. I am going to create a cronjob to run the shell script instead of creating a cronjob to individually run each php script.

Depending on your shell...

#!/bin/sh
/path/to/php /path/to/1.php
/path/to/php /path/to/2.php
/path/to/php /path/to/3.php

use run-parts and put them all in a directory, executable?

15 6 * * * run-parts /home/path/daily

I think he said at the same time.. ?

Just add an ampersand after each command to put it in the background:

command &

You might need to redirect the output (check your shell man page):

command 2>&1 >/dev/null &
