How to run a php script in the background in Codeigniter?

Question

linux

Good afternoon!
I'm trying to run a script in the background in Codeigniter.
In the console I write
php /path/to/application index.php controller method
But the terminal asks to write ... index.php start... (start the server)
If I write like this:
php /path/to/application index.php start controller method
then start is assumed to be the name of the controller.
How to run this script in the background?
