Try rewriting the above as follows:
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
echo "Lanzando vmware\n";
exec('whoami',$who_ret);
exec('/var/www/procesa.pl',$procesa_ret,$err);
echo !isset($argv[0]) ? "<pre />\n" : null;
print_r($who_ret);
print_r($procesa_ret);
echo !isset($argv[0]) ? "</pre>\n" : null;
if(isset($err) && $err != 0) {
echo "Process launching returned error code ".$err."\n";
} else {
echo "Successfully launched!\n";
}
?>
However, I'm not really certain why you need to call the Perl
script. What I would consider doing myself is the following:
<?php
exec('whoami',$who);
echo "Attempting to launch VMWare process as ".$who.".\n";
exec('/usr/bin/vmware & 2>1',$ret,$err);
echo isset($err) && $err != 0 ? "Error code: ".$err."\n" : null;
echo

Your English is better than some of the native speakers we have
here, so no need to apologize! ;-P
