#23839 [NEW]: exec() system() passthru() does not work

From: flop dot m at usa dot net Operating system: Windows 2000 PHP version: 4.3.1 PHP Bug Type: Program Execution Bug description: exec() system() passthru() does not work Wanted to launch a batch file. None of those method function. It will just print the commands of the batch file - but won't execute any - which is weird as those commands should be executed by 'cmd'. args used was "cmd /c some.bat" -> exec("cmd /c some.bat") Just 'downdate' PHP to version 4.0.6 which works perfectly. Any idea of where the problem is? -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23839&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=23839&r=gnused
