 New Comment:

Again, I did check in all possible configurations and it does work.

However please configure impersonation correctly for FastCGI (that's not
the App pool settings).

Thanks for your fast response.

I am running the website using an application pool and have configured a
special user for that pool. I use the same user for anonymous access. So
both the website as well as PHP use the same identity. This user has all
the required rights. 

Just to test I have given this user rights to %COMSPEC% using cacls.
Same error.
Gave IUSR_xxx rights, same error.
Gave IWAM_xxx rights, same error.

Please check what has changed between 5.2.13 and 5.3.2

Let me copy my note here as well:

Quick note here. It is necessary to give a given IUSR_* the permission
to use cmd.exe (%COMSPEC%). It is recommended not to do it as it may
introduce security issues, obviously. But if you really want to do it,
use:

cacls %COMSPEC% /E /G IUSR_xxxx:R

you have >to give< the permission

It works just fine and you have the permission to the IIS user to
execute the shell. See the other reports about that, I added the
explanation and how to configure it correctly there.

PHP 5.3.2 (cgi-fcgi) (built: Mar  3 2010 20:47:00)
FastCGI DLL Version 7.5.7693.0
Microsoft Windows Server 2003R2
IIS6

Exact same problem - PHP Warning: exec(): Unable to fork 
Changed PHP back to:
  PHP 5.2.13 (cgi-fcgi) (built: Feb 24 2010 14:37:42)

No fork problem, so it is not a configuration problem.
