I am trying to setup Websocket based PHP chat application from Chat-Using-WebSocket-and-PHP-Socket on Bluehost on domain XYZ.ABC.com.
I have changed $host to XYZ.ABC.com both in server.php & index.php.
I am not able find a way to invoke & keep server.php alive.
Is any other way to get this done? even switching hosing provider works for me.
If you have shell access you need to run the script with
nohup <command> &
It will then run in background and not stop if you leave the shell.
If you don't have SSH access there is no chance in keeping it alive. Look for a cheap vserver or rootserver with SSH access then.
