Run a PHP script as a background process on a WAMP server

  • 772

I have two PHP scripts that need to be run as continuous background processes on a WAMP server.

WAMP is installed on a Windows 7 PC. These scripts are already reside in separate folder in the www root directory.

I am using the following versions of Apache and PHP:

Apache Version :2.2.8

PHP Version :5.2.6

Since this is not a Unix platform, I can't use nohup php script.php > /dev/null to do this job. I'm looking for similar kind of command or method which works on WAMP.

Can anyone explain the steps I need to be take to do this task?

windows php background-process

  1. You could use Windows Task Scheduler and call the job using

    ...\php\cli\php.exe
