At first, our objective is to transfer modifications from one system to another using a shell script named synchfolders.sh. The content of the file is as follows:
rsync -av --delete -e 'sshpass -p Wordpress@123 ssh -p 22' <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="93e1fcfce7d3a2aaa1bda2a5abbda1bdaaa7">[email protected]</a>:/var/www/html/prosync/wp-content/plugins/ /var/www/html/devsync/wp-content/plugins >> /var/www/html/devsync/wp-content/mysynclog.txtWe aim to run this shell script in a PHP file using shell_exec(). However, when executing this PHP file from a web browser, everything runs except for the rsync command. After browsing Stack Overflow, we came across this post: php exec() rsync ssh to remote server not working. The solution suggested was to test running the PHP file from the command line, which worked perfectly fine. Unfortunately, it still does not work through the browser. Could you please point out where we might have gone wrong? Thank you in advance.
