PHP Code:

exec(php_path()." -q ".BASEDIR."/actions/make.php $object &> /dev/null &");

The value of $object will be inserted in to the command, and you can get to it in make.php by using $argv. For example:

PHP Code:

<?php echo $argv[0]; // outputs what was passed to make.php

Also note that whatever $object is, it should probably be escaped if it hasn't been in the code before the exec() line.

If there is no $argv inside make.php $output value is useless in this command ?
