Symfony Command stores an empty SQL-File for Database Backup

i have an issue by making backup from database (Postgresql 11) with Symfony(6.01) Command. I use also for that the Process Bundle of Symfony.

Problem is, if the Controller Action calls the command to backup the database, it saves finally an empty SQL-File. There is also no errors in dev.log or Postgreql logfile.

But when i print out the command to the browser and execute this in the terminal the SQL-File is filled correctly and not empty.

Any Idea what could be the problem. Thanks in advise. PS: I can not use shell script. Didn’t got it better here with CodeFormatting of the command class.

    $fileName .= "$time.sql";

    $backupPathTemp = '/tmp/';

    $path = "/usr/bin/pg_dump";

    $sqlQuery = "export PGPASSWORD='$this->databasePW';$path --host=$this->databaseHost --port=5432 --username=$this->databaseUser --create --clean

    //echo $sqlQuery;

    $cmd = method_exists(Process::class, 'fromShellCommandline') ? Process::fromShellCommandline($sqlQuery, null, null, null, null) : new Process($sqlQuery, null, null, null, null);


    /** @var Process $cmd */
    $cmd->run();
    if (!$cmd->isSuccessful()) {
        return false;
    }
    return true;
}

}

Answer

This has worked after the $sqlQuery was written in the CommandClass by this way:

$dumpQuery = 'export PGPASSWORD="' . $this->databasePW . '"; ' .
        $path . ' ' .
        '--host=' . $this->databaseHost . ' ' .
        '--username=' . $this->databaseUser . ' ' .
        '--port='.$this->databasePort . ' ' .
        '--no-password ' .
        '--create ' .
        '--clean ' .
        '--verbose ' .
        $this->databaseName . ' ' . '> ' . $backupPathTemp.$fileName .';' .
        'cp ' . $backupPathTemp.$fileName . ' ' . $backupPath.$fileName;
