Running Symfony2 command in background

Question

Let's say I have Symfony2 Command example:command. It works fine, when I type in terminal:

php app/console example:command &

But if I trying to do it with sh file, like:

#!/bin/bash
php app/console example:command &

it does not work. What may cause the problem?

There is no output, but ps aux says that process didn't start. — Roman Kliuchko

(I assume your Symfony path is /var/www/Symfony/ ) In sh file try this

/usr/bin/php /var/www/Symfony/app/console example:command

If you want to run it in crontab as well, you need to redirect the the Symfony folder by cd then call your sh file to be executed.

You should copy your sh file at symfony root directory and then run this sh file.

Give 777 permission to your sh file and try again.

Please let me know about your result?

In .sh file, Please access your directory then run that command.
Ex: please use this two steps in your .sh file

cd /var/www/project

$ php app/console example:command
