Regards, Stephan Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-11 20:21:30] sniper@php.net Not PHP bug (see above comment) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-09 15:32:15] egarcia at egm dot as This is not a problem in the PHP. The problem is related to the execution permissions over the CMD to the IUSR_machine and the ZIP exe file. I do fork to GPG.exe in ISAPI/CGI modes. Using popen and proc_open. According to the mode ISAPI/CGI the IWAM_/IUSR_ user must have read & execute permissions over the CMD and the EXE file that you try to call. This sentence put the needed permissions: cacls cmd.exe /E /G MACHINE\IUSR_MACHINE:R Regards, ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-06 10:17:30] hartz at e-consult-ag dot de I tried it by running PHP as CGI binary with the same result ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-06 10:15:08] hartz at e-consult-ag dot de No, it happens only under iis 5.0. Under apache and windows 2000 it runs without any problems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-06 01:54:55] sniper@php.net Does this happen with some other webserver, like Apache?
