Problem:

I have a webserver, which is mostly php and every page is dynamicly created with php. On one page I have a php script, that a user can start, which runs for 2-3 minutes until its finished. The problem here is: The script does not finish, when the user decides to switch pages on the website or does anything else, that starts annother php script.

is there any way to force a php script to run until its finished, even if other php scripts are started?

Use ignore_user_abort, more info found here: https://www.php.net/manual/en/features.connection-handling.php

There is a solution built into PHP:

https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ignore-user-abort.php

You can simply call this:

ignore_user_abort(true);

This ignore_user_abort setting is also one which you can apply using the php.ini or .htaccess files.
