Batchmode issues

Unity Engine
1

Ok well we need to build asset bundles on our server and found that we had to run the editor in batch mode to do so, so we bought another copy of Unity Pro to pull this off.

We need to call this from php and have it run unity and save it.
I can run the function from the command prompt and it works just fine, but when I try to do it from php with the exec command it only loads unity as a process and goes no further. It just hangs there. I can look in Task manager and it shows up there, but it does not run or load the scene or anything.

So how the heck do you call unity batchmode and automate it from the web?

Thanks,
Jeff

Well found my own answer and thought I would share.

We have php and apache running on a windows server. The problem was that apache was running as a service. Once that was turned off and run manually, it worked perfectly.
