AFAIK you would never run a service, especially not a PHP service, in the web server.

In the web server normal operation is Request -> Script start -> script output ->
script end ->end of request. Long running scripts are abuse.

Either run your script as true daemon, or use a "ad hoc daemon" solution like running
your script in "screen", or starting it with "nohup".
