try "sudo php /var/www/qa/launchpadnew/site/ftp_check.php" and "sudo /var/www/qa/launchpadnew/site/ftp_check.php" You're giving the user the ability to run /var/www/qa/launchpadnew/site/ftp_check.php but not necessarily php. Your script might not need it, so try it each way. And, since you're using sudo, you need to call "sudo" before the command.
