You must specify the path to php as well as options which may be needed
For example
/usr/local/bin/php /home/username/yourscript.php

nope
i am not running php web script
i run some program like..
shoutcast.

Reread your post, I see what your getting at now.

"cd /home/abc/xxx ./xxxx" Would be considered two seperate commands and probably need to be split with &&.
So try something like:

"cd /home/abc/xxx && ./xxxx"
Have you tried executing the program using the full path as well? For example if you were trying to run a shell script:

"/home/abc/xxx/xxxx.sh"
