   5  
   6  <?php
   7  
   8  require_once ('config.inc.php');
   9  
  10  /** Verify the script call is from trusted place. */
  11  global $application_unique_key;
  12  if($_REQUEST['app_key'] != $application_unique_key) {
  13      echo "Access denied!";
  14      exit;
  15  }
  16  
  17  /**
  18   * Check if instance of this service is already running?
  19   */
  20  $svcname = $_REQUEST['service'];
  21  // We need to make sure the PIDfile name is unqique
  22  $servicePIDFile = "logs/$svcname-service.pid";
  23  
  24  if(file_exists($servicePIDFile)) {
  25      echo "Service $svcname already running! Check $servicePIDFile";
  26      exit;
  27  } else {
  28      $servicePIDFp = fopen($servicePIDFile, 'a');
  29  }
  30  
  31  /**
  32   * Turn-off PHP error reporting.
  33   */
  34  try { error_reporting(0); } catch(Exception $e) { }
  35  
  36  // ... REST OF YOUR CODE ...
  37  
  38  // AT END
  39  /** Close and remove the PID file. */
  40  if($servicePIDFp) {
  41      fclose($servicePIDFp);
  42      unlink($servicePIDFile);
  43  }
  44

  66  
  67  cd /D %VTIGERCRM_ROOTDIR%
