I forgot that PHP saves stuff in the /tmp directory (in my case
/var/www/html/tmp [with permissins/owner set accordingly].

So, it works with:


<?php

$command = "/usr/bin/espeak -g0 -ven+m3 -p22 -s170 'Hallo Toofie' -w
/var/www/html/tmp/aba.wav";

exec($command);

?>


Btw, it sounds pretty awful!
