Run a drush script from php system()

I have a Drupal module with a function that runs a system(“myscript.drush”); 

function _deploy_monitor_stream($submission_id) {   header("Content-type: text/plain");   disable_ob(); // Outputs to browser    $command = 'whoami'; // Debug : Returns my local user since i'm using MAMP    system($command, $return);    $command = 'pwd'; // Debug : Returns my drupal root so it's fine   system($command, $return);    $PATH = getenv('PATH'); // Debug : I tried to force my path to have all bins i need   putenv('PATH=' . $PATH . ':[FULL_PATH_TO/drush:/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysql');    $command = 'drush myscript.drush --option1 --option 2 | tee mytest.log;   system($command); }

myscript.drush runs different drush_shell_exec() including a site-install function. 

$si = DRUSH_PATH . " -y si my_profile --db-url=mysql://root:root@localhost/$DATABASE_NAME "; $si .= "-l $SITE_URL --sites-subdir=$SITE_URL --account-name=$DRUPAL_ADMIN_NAME --account-pass=$DRUPAL_ADMIN_PWD "; $si .= "--site-mail=$SITE_CONTACT_MAIL"; drush_print("Installing site ... " . $site_code); // ---- INSTALL INSTALLATION PROFILE if (drush_shell_exec($si)) {   drush_log("Site succesfully installed", 'ok'); } else {   //If install failed, we abort   foreach (drush_shell_exec_output() as $m) {     drush_print($m);   }   drush_die("Command // $si //  failed"); }

While it works fine if I run it from the command line, it doesn’t work when my PHP calls the script.

Here is the script output :

Installing site ... /Users/me/.composer/vendor/drush/drush/drush --root=/Users/me/Documents/workspace/proto -y si my_profile --db-url=mysql://root:root@localhost/test_site.test.com -l test_site.test.com --sites-subdir=test_site.test.com --account-name=admin --account-pass=admin --site-mail=system_contact@example.com Directory /Users/me/.drush/cache/default exists, but is not       [error] writable.

As you can see, it cannot find the mysql command sh: mysql: command not found I tried to add the path to mysql to all and even force it to the PATH var before running the script in case it would only live for the current run – but it doesn’t solve the problem.

If i do an 

drush_shell_exec('echo $PATH'); foreach (drush_shell_exec_output() as $m) {     drush_print($m); }

At the beginning of my drush script, it confirms mysql is in the PATH var. So Drush should be able to find it as well !

Anybody can help ?

Thanks !

UPDATE 1

Here is a log with a si --debug option. It doesn’t give more information – We still see that the “script” failes to call mysql Installing site ... /Users/me/.composer/vendor/drush/drush/drush --root=/Users/me/Documents/workspace/proto -y si --debug my_profile --db-url=mysql://root:root@localhost/test_site.test.com -l test_site.test.com --sites-subdir=test_site.test.com --account-name=admin --account-pass=admin --site-mail=system_contact@example.fr Bootstrap to phase 0.
