How to run Satis on a remote server?

Question

There is a command to run Satis: php bin/satis build satis.json response

Satis itself lies on the server, for example, example.com/satis

How to run a command on a server remotely?

I tried to make a script with the command shell_exec('php bin/satis build satis.json response/') but encountered an error when Satis cannot log in to Git:

Where is a problem?

Answer 1

Host key verification failed.

Probably your command is not executed with the same user as the one managing satis on the server.

That means $HOME is not the same, and $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts (used to verify the host key of the remote host) is not there or not the same.

Try at least shell_exec('id -a; env') to check out what user/environment is seen through a shell_exec() call.
