I am also facing the same problem with Apache 2.0.58 and PHP 5.0.4 on
Windows 2003 OS. From one of our phps, an exe called test.exe is being
invoked. Randomly, Apache hangs and we need to restart it for normal
operation. As sussgested in one of the php.net links
(http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=22526), I have tried using
session_write_close() before each exec call and seesion_start() after
completion of the call. But this workaround does not work as suggested.

Description:
------------
I'm running CGI script using the exec() function. The problem is that
sometime the cmd.exe hangs. I'm shure that my CGI script is ok.

I'm using PHP 4.3.3 and Apache 1.3.29
All result in the exec() command hanging until the console is manually
stopped. I also have to restart Apache.

I tried also other functions (system, passthru etc.) but the result is
the same.
