How do I find out, which user is running the current php script?
apache, php
Solution
Execute `whoami`:
<?php echo exec('whoami'); ?>
Problem
How do we determine which user the php script is running under when I run the script on server? Is it running under the same user as apache or phpmyadmin by chance? My question maybe wrongly framed but I want to know which user so that I set appropriate permission for different folders in /var
