I'm running wampserver and php5. exec()
works when I run the script through the command-line, but when I try to run it through the server, it fails.
I looked at all the error logs, there were none. I redirected stderr to stdout, there was still no output when I run it from the server.
Any suggestions ?
EDIT: I should have mentioned -- I'm running on WinXP and safe_mode is off.
Perhaps you need to turn off safe_mode in php.ini (safe_mode = Off
)
Can you post what exactly (code) you try to run?
Did you try this instead?
$return = system('dir');
Do you have a problem with the directories on the server maybe?
Just had the same problem. I don't whether this is a different case than yours or not.
I was trying to create new file(image) in a directory. Apparently the problem was on the folder permission. I used Linux Ubuntu.
