Not able to execute shell script in php

Question

I am able to execute the shell script through php via command line terminal. But I am not able to execute the same script(.sh) using php when clicked on HTML button through browser.

Following is my php script(wettyload.php)-

<?php
    shell_exec('/var/www/html/wettyload.sh');
?>

Following is my shell script(wettyload.sh)-

#!/bin/bash
cd /root/wetty
node app.js -p 8080

Following is my html code(url.html)-

<html>
    <body>
        <form name="form2" method="post" action="http://127.0.0.1/wettyload.php">
            <input type="submit" id="url" name="url" value="Connect terminal">
        </form>
    </body>
</html>

Answer 1

Use

<?php
    shell_exec('sh /var/www/html/wettyload.sh');
?>

Update:

You didn't mention /root/wetty before, you've a couple of options:

Move the wetty dir to a location where the webserver user has execute permissions.
Set the permission of /root/wetty to allow the webserver user to execute (unsafe)

Note: Make sure you've execute permissions to wettyload.sh
