#27867 [NEW]: exec(du) returns width doubled values

From: andrej at antiszoc dot hu Operating system: FreeBSD PHP version: 4.3.5 PHP Bug Type: Program Execution Bug description: exec(du) returns width doubled values Description: ------------ We are using a script, which looks up every directory of our webhosting customers. For some reasons we don't use quota, just looks the space, the customers use. The script executes du, width exec('du -d 0 -h /MAINDIR'.dirname); this worked just fine, for weeks. Last week we update-ed to PHP4.3.5 and after, the script emailed us very wierd numbers. Taking a closer look we saw, that with exec() du returns exactly the twice of the real du value, but everything else fine. We tested it from directly in the shell, and of coz several times, in our PHP script. This a very simple thing, so wouldn't post any code samples. P.S: I've just tried stat, it worked far more worse...
