Complete beginner question...
Let's say I have SSH access to my website. And, I have a file:
mywebsite.com/foo/my_script.php
How can I use SSH to run my_script.php?
ssh [email protected] "/usr/bin/php /path/to/my_script.php"
Just make sure that the user you use to login is the user you want to run the script as.
Also make sure that you actually have /usr/bin/php installed. Running a PHP script from the command line isn't the same as starting it from say Apache.
You can also make the PHP file like this:
#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
echo 'Hello world';
?>
and then just type
/path/to/my_script.php
in SSH and it will work also
