Re: Unable to use exec() in php

Thanks jim for your reponse , from no success means I am not able to get any output. I am also using shell_exec('matlab -r myscript') to run my matlab script. I see a new matlab.exe process starting in the windows task manager. And the browser keeps busy trying to open this php page. I have made my matlab script to write on a text file but this file is never created.
