You’ll have to provide the display that gnome-web-photo should run on – this will refer to the current X11-compatible server running on the machine handling the request. This is usually xorg these days. Anyway, you can provide information about which display to use by appending –display to the command line: –display=:0.0.

The X11-server will usually not allow connections from other users, but this depends on your configuration. You can use xhost to configure access to your X11-server.

The script:

php
echo($DISPLAY);
shell_exec(‘gnome-web-photo -t 0 –mode=thumbnail -w 512 -s 256 http://www.google.com /tmp/google.jpg’);

Hello,

I have implemented this script:

When I execute it in shell (/usr/bin/php script.php) it runs! But if I execute it with a browser I view this error: Cannot open display

Can you help me?
