PHP refuses to run pm-suspend?

PHP refuses to run pm-suspend?

So I've got a home server up and running, and have set it up with
wake-on-lan, and had a friend manage to wake it from two states away.
Great, that way I can run a file server without leaving it powered on all
the time. Problem is, after waking it, I can't get it to go back to sleep.
Certainly, I could configure it to suspend after x minutes, but then that
would leave me buggered if I WANTED it on for some reason.
I've been trying to get php to run pm-suspend, with pretty much no
success. I've built a script that I can run with ./script from the
terminal and it suspends fine. Php will execute it, it even echos the
lines that I want it to, but it just skips over the line that suspends the
system like it wasn't even there. Any idea on what I could do to make this
work?
