You may recall, that PHP scripts run under the same username as the user
running the Apache server. So, any scripts you run from a PHP script will
run as that user and not as you.
Therefore it could be permissions or some other issue that does not allow
the script to run. You could look through your web server error logs and
see if any messages are logged there.
