Bug #10240 Updated: passthru / exec etc have problems with input & output of executed programs

ID: 10240 Updated by: sander Reported By: goulas@ee.upatras.gr Old Status: Feedback Status: Closed Bug Type: IIS related Operating System: Windows ME/2000 PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 New Comment: No feedback. Closing. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-11-09 12:22:01] sander@php.net Can you try the latest CVS? (Windows builds at http://php-dev-win.dhs.org/, source at snaps.php.net or via CVS) Using PHP 4.0.6 on Windows probably won't work; there were many problems with exec-alike functions on 4.0.6 which are fixed in the latest CVS. And if it still doesn't work, can you provide a sample script? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-04-09 06:51:58] goulas@ee.upatras.gr I cannot have output of executed programs from functions like passthru or exec. The same script runs well on Linux php (it is version 3.0 on Linux). I tried on Windows something like passthru("command /c dir"); and on Linux passthru("/bin/ls"); On windows ME I'm using the CGI version of PHP, on PWS, on 2000 I 'm using the CGI version with IIS. On Linux, I don't know exactly what's going on, I know only that it runs Apache. With passthru the CGI execution takes TOO MUCH time, and with exec it doesn't fill the return array with the output. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=10240&edit=1
