I have a .sh file that I execute from PHP with the shell_exec command. The .sh files are like below.
It creates the directories and "npm init -yes" line is executed successfully and I get the return lines but "npm install --save-dev hardhat" and "npx hardhat" lines have no return and don't do what expected to. Any idea how can I execute it and it works? When I execute the .sh file with root on the terminal it works also. But not with user apache.
