[App_rpt-users] Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk.ctl exist?)

For your shell script, you probably only need 755

chmod 755 /etc/path/to/script/filename.sh

You can type 
chmod --help for some quick help
man chmod    for extended manual pages, Q to exit 

or visit http://www.computerhope.com/unix/uchmod.htm
for further reading and understanding.

I am uncertain of your php script as I don't have enough info.
You may need to set ownership of the file? 

There are other potential issues from the php server for file
access/permission & security.
To much for email. You will find google is your friend.

You will have to start with the obvious that the shell script lacked
permissions and go from there.

Make sure your shell script has a proper shebang 
ie start the first line of the file with

#!/bin/bash 

or the path to the interpreter you are using (normally bash).

Without the proper shebang, it will likely not run anything with
external calls.
Without proper permissions, it will not run at all except when you (the
owner of file) run it from a command line.

Do you happen to know how I can check permissions/the chmod code which I
can use to fix permissions?

I say again, it is a file ownership /permissions issue.

Check the script file for proper permissions and that the script starts
off with a proper shebang.

 The script works fine when I run it normally. I also tried to enter the
specific command on the web page.

Does - '/etc/asterisk/scripts/disconnect' script have ownership rights ?

 I created a simple php file where anyone with the link can disconnect
my nose from all links if something wrong is going on (due to the fact
my node is same channel, half duplex linked, and if it was stuck on
transmit, local transmissions would double with the node)

 <?php

 echo "All links sucessfully disconnected from 40764, KDØWHB test1";

 echo '><pre>';

 // Outputs all the result of shellcommand "", and returns
 // the last output line into $last_line. Stores the return value
 // of the shell command in $retval.
 $last_line = system('/etc/asterisk/scripts/disconnect', $retval);

 // Printing additional info
 echo '
 </pre>
 <hr />Last line of the output: ' . $last_line . '
 <hr />Return value: ' . $retval;
 ?>

 The code was found on the php website as a sample and I just changed ls
to my script that works when ran from a normal shell.

 Visiting kd0whb.duckdns.org/disconnect.php shows the output of "unable
to connect to remote" 

 Any suggestions? 

 Thanks,
 Skyler, KDØWHB
