The functions Exec() and System() fails to pass the return status of the command to the return_var
variable. It always passes "-1".
This script reproduces the bug:
<?php
$rc=0;
unset($array);
exec ("ls /", $array, $rc);
echo "return value: $rc<br>";
echo "output:<br>";
$rows=count($array);
for ($i=0; $i<$rows; $i++) {
echo $array[$i]."<br>";
}
?>
The output is:
return value: -1
output:
bin
boot
dev
...etc...
The "return value" is also "-1" if I change "/" to
"/dont/exists/".
This bug is introduced in version 4.0.4, exec() worked in version 4.0.3pl1.
