How to execute a PHP script with JobScheduler

Suppose you have a PHP script with the following contents (simple example for Unix here):

 <?php
 phpinfo();
 ?>

To enable the JobScheduler to execute this script, you have to make two changes to the script.

• First, add one line to the top of the script:
  
  

   #!/usr/bin/php
   
   <?php
   phpinfo();
   ?>
  

  
  Note that the first line is an interpreter directive, which tells the operating system which program to load.

• Secondly, make this file executable with: chmod u+x info.php

You also can add the script directly to the job definition instead of using a separate file.
  
   
  
   

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
   <job name="job_execphp">
      <script language="shell">
          <![CDATA[
   #!/usr/bin/php
   <?php
   phpinfo();
   ?>
           ]]>
       </script>
       <run_time/>
   </job>
