shp2pgsql is writing it's progress output to stderr, because the generated
And the default PHP configuration is writing this output to Apache's error.log
Please have a look at
https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/dcmms/trunk/dcmms/admin/shapefile_loader.php
It shows you how to redirect the shp2pgsql progress and error
information to a file using "2>" and the PHP system() function.
It also shows you how to check the shp2pgsql return value, which is important
to determine if everything went ok.

Steffen
