1.add below line in your PHP file.
var_dump(shell_exec("whoami"));
you can find the username in your browser after clicking the url related to your PHP file
2.in your terminal
sudo vim /ect/sudoers
#in vim editor, add this line in your sudoers file
"username ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL"
#change username to that found in step one
3.change the exec cmd in your PHP file to
exec("sudo python3 urfilename.py")
The main reason for your problem maybe the root permission, so by changing your sudoers file, the error might be tackled.
