which() doesn't resolve the path, but I found out it was
/usr/local/php/bin/php.
But how do I make the call
exec("/usr/local/php/bin/php process1.php");
so that the page from which the call is made doesnt wait for the result
but instead just continues?

use & (not tested, but runs other processes as background processes)
exec("/usr/local/php/bin/php process1.php &");
