I use passthru to launch an Unix command but after it's done (I verufy the execution of the unix prog) , it seems that php does not work anymore. The loading of a php page is infinite. First, I think that the unix shell does not send to php the end of the command, so I use "&" at the end of the command in passthru but it doesn't do anything better.
