getmyinode
We also had this challenge in our company to prevent a php script in a cron job from overlapping each other.
We made this solution
<?php
// Initialize variables
$found = 0;
$file = basename(__FILE__);
$commands = array();
// Get running processes.
exec("ps w", $commands);
// If processes are found
if (count($commands) > 0) {
foreach ($commands as $command) {
if (strpos($command, $file) === false) {
// Do nothin'
}
else {
// Let's count how many times the file is found.
$found++;
}
}
}
// If the instance of the file is found more than once.
if ($found > 1) {
echo "Another process is running.\n";
die();
}
/**
*
* Regular process here...
*
*/
?>

Looking to create a lock-file mechanism for a cmd-line script?
Enjoy!
#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
define( 'LOCK_FILE', "/var/run/".basename( $argv[0], ".php" ).".lock" );
if( isLocked() ) die( "Already running.\n" );
# The rest of your script goes here....
echo "Hello world!\n";
sleep(30);
unlink( LOCK_FILE );
exit(0);
function isLocked()
{
# If lock file exists, check if stale. If exists and is not stale, return TRUE
# Else, create lock file and return FALSE.
if( file_exists( LOCK_FILE ) )
{
# check if it's stale
$lockingPID = trim( file_get_contents( LOCK_FILE ) );
# Get all active PIDs.
$pids = explode( "\n", trim( `ps -e | awk '{print $1}'` ) );
# If PID is still active, return true
if( in_array( $lockingPID, $pids ) ) return true;
# Lock-file is stale, so kill it. Then move on to re-creating it.
echo "Removing stale lock file.\n";
unlink( LOCK_FILE );
}
file_put_contents( LOCK_FILE, getmypid() . "\n" );
return false;
}
?>

You can use this function also to avoid more than one instance of your app.
You can also use this class.
http://www.pure-php.de/node/20
Usage:
<?php
inlude("ProcessHandler.class.php");
if(ProcessHandler::isActive()){
die("Already running!\n";);
}else{
ProcessHandler::activate();
//run my app
}
?>

One good use for this is deciding on a concurrency-safe temporary file or directory name. You can be assured that no two processes on the same server have the same PID, so this is enough to avoid collisions. For example:
<?php
$tmpfile = "/tmp/foo_".getmypid();
// Use $tmpfile...
// Use $tmpfile...
// Use $tmpfile...
unlink ($tmpfile);
?>
If you are sharing /tmp over the network (which is odd....) then you can, of course, mix in the PHP server's IP address.
