Hi,
Did you check the documentation?
http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php
Look at the notes:
Note: If you start a program using this function and want to leave it
running in the background, you have to make sure that the output of that
program is redirected to a file or some other output stream or else PHP
will hang until the execution of the program ends.
Regards,
