it contains nothing ...., because the script executing inside of `shell_exec` is running in a separate thread, and `$argv` is for this thread. I use the term thread loosely. Instance of PHP is probably more "proper" – ArtisticPhoenix Jul 05 '17 at 21:53

You use the wrong function try exec instead
http://php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php
exec ( string $command [, array &$output [, int &$return_var ]] )
$param1 = escapeshellarg( $param1 );
exec('php /var/www/html/test/kobi.php $param1', $output );
And use this too.
http://php.net/manual/en/function.escapeshellarg.php
Otherwise someone take over your server maybee...
UPDATE
'php /var/www/html/test/kobi.php $param1'
Is string literal, so your input is $param1 literally, not the value of it. By the way. You would use " double quotes for variable interpolation.

`echo` literally? because `print_r()` `var_export()`, `var_dump()` are for arrays, you can't echo an array. – ArtisticPhoenix Jul 05 '17 at 21:56

Then run your script on the command line and see if it outputs anything, chances are it's not. – ArtisticPhoenix Jul 05 '17 at 21:58

Also on windows the php.exe should be configured in the PATH environmental variable, otherwise you have to use the full path to the php executable. – ArtisticPhoenix Jul 05 '17 at 22:03

that said, you can convert the array to Json, or a CSV, and pass that in, then convert it back. – ArtisticPhoenix Jul 06 '17 at 06:29

Ok, i solved it by appending array to string (with foreach loop) and passing it as a string, and after that bring it back to an array with explode. – K.D Jul 06 '17 at 07:33
