[RESOLVED] PHP script in Wget vs Browser issue

designbai

Hi All,

I have a php script which runs in a loop get 440 soap request to fetch some data feed.

I need to run this script using cron. The problem I am facing here is: if I use wget, after some point of time let us say, after 300 requests, the script starts again and run from the start.

The same php code, If I run in browswer, it completes one full loop of 440 and the script exits.

As for my understanding there is no memory problem, I have 4gb or ram and ini set memory limit of 1GB in the code. I am sure I unset all the variable in the loop.

For the past 48 hours I am totally distorted.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

What do you mean "the script starts again" ? PHP will never simply restart a script if it fails, so how does it restart? Is your cron job being called before the previous instance completes?

I run the script in shell command line, and i am writing a log file after each soap request like filename_1.log, filename_2.log and so on filename_313.log

When it reaches ahead of 300, the same php run again automatically and it starts from the beginning i could see the log files starts again from filename_1.log and so on and the previous iteration also continues.

Thanks for your reply. The issue resolved.

That is because of the default Wget timeout. By default it is set to 900seconds. I tested with more than 900 sec and it worked.
Because the script takes more than 900 seconds to complete, that is the reason why it restarts again.

I tested with --timeout=1800 it worked. To disable this, use --timeout=0.

It is resolved.
