Re: exec in different directory where PHP is Installed

the script is vbulletin function fetch_im_exec($command, $args, $needoutput = false, $dieongs = true) { if (!function_exists('exec')) { $this->error = array(fetch_error('php_error_exec_disabled')); return false; } $imcommands = array( 'identify' => $this->identifypath, 'convert' => $this->convertpath, ); $input = $imcommands["$command"] . ' ' . $args . ' 2>&1'; if (strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3)) == 'WIN' AND PHP_VERSION < '5.3.0') { $input = '"' . $input . '"'; } $exec = @exec($input, $output, $this->returnvalue); when i put the script in \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\scriptdir\ the result is empty when i put the script everywhere in the c: then the result is good ! in both case $input is the same and point to c:\program files\im\identify.exe i use php 5.2.8 on windows thanks by advance stephane On 5/24/2010 11:11 PM, Kevin Kinsey wrote:

Safe mode in PHP is OFF ...

Hello, Can you show us the script? The first thing I'd do is call "is_file(\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\scriptdir\foo.php)" ... are you doing that? Kevin Kinsey
