I was hoping I could run shell_exec('qstat') in PHP and display its output on a web page. While shell_exec() works with other commands—e.g. echo shell_exec('whoami') correctly displays my tool's username on the webpage—for reasons I cannot explain, the output of shell_exec('qstat') is always blank. When I run qstat on the CLI at that same time, it does show me the familiar table output of ongoing jobs. Any idea why that is the case? Has anyone already created a solution for fetching a list of active jobs from the grid and displaying it on a web-based status page for your tool?

I've not done it for a single tool, but I did it for all tools: * https://sge-status.toolforge.org/ * https://sge-jobs.toolforge.org/ The source for both are linked from their page footers. You can fetch the current grid job status as json too via https://sge-status.toolforge.org/api/v1/ Bryan -- Bryan Davis Technical Engagement Wikimedia Foundation Principal Software Engineer Boise, ID USA [[m:User:BDavis_(WMF)]] irc: bd808 _______________________________________________ Wikimedia Cloud Services mailing list To unsubscribe send an email to cloud-leave(a)lists.wikimedia.org (formerly labs-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org) %(web_page_url)slistinfo%(cgiext)s/%(_internal_name)s

Nevertheless, I cannot get it to work. The PHP code shown below returns a blank page at https://huji.toolforge.org/status.php Bryan's code which is /usr/bin/qstat -xml -j '*' | /bin/sed -e 's/JATASK:[^>]*/jatask/g' but even that results in a blank output on the web. On the command line, both of those return an XML as expected. Any ideas as to how that could be the case?
