Question 40044 in PHP Question posted in
Official manual can be found here.

run a php script forever

I have a Cpanel web host without terminal and now I have PHP code that I want to run forever without any stops.
This code sends some requests and checks the response and then saves something in the database. I have written this code completely.
Please tell me a simple way to run this code non-stop or every second.

As i know, Cronjob for at least every minute. not for every seconds(or run forever).

I want a simple way to run a PHP code permanently on the server and not slow down the server.

    you have to use Cron jobs, please refer to this links for more information,

    You can define 60 cronjobs to run every minutes. First one runs immediately, but second one sleep for a second, than run, 3rd one sleeps for two seconds etc.

    Example Cron Command:

            • sleep 1 && {your cron command to run your script} 2>&1

    Alternatively you can use GNU package mcron or SystemD timer unit.

    An extremely simple way to achieve this is to have a forever loop, like this:

    <?php

while (true) { //true will always be true
    //put here the code you want to be repeated forever
}
