Print those out, and Windoze should tell you what's wrong. Don't use '..\phpunit.bat' -- Use a full pathname. Also don't use \ at all, I don't think... I *think* PHP will convert / to the right thing for your OS. No promises on that part. If you *DO* use \, you should use \\, even inside '', just case your filename ever has a ' in it or you ever need to use variables, switch to "", and suddenly it "doesn't work" because now \n isn't what it once was. > 3) $firstArg = "C:\\..\\..\\Run.php"; > $output = exec("C:\\..\\..\\phpunit.bat $firstArg"); > > Result: Still nothing is happening. > > 4)$output = exec("C:\\..\\..\\phpunit.bat $firstArg 2>&1", $myOut); > echo "<br/>My out value is ".$myOut; > Result: My out value is Array operable program or batch file. echo "<br />My out value is ", implode("", $myOut); Also add $myError argument, and do: if ($myError) echo "OS Error: $myError<br />\n"; -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
