I think system() has worked for much longer than 1.3.6... but I'm not an Apache version control guru either. Use the optional arguments to system() (or does only exec() have that?) to determine OS error code. 'man errno' should then let you count them off from 1 to whatever you have and get something useful. 99.9% of the time, it's path/permissions as defined by the environment of the user running PHP (usually 'nobody'). -- Richard Lynch | If this was worth $$$ to you, buy a CD US Customer Support Director | from one of the artists listed here: Zend Technologies USA | http://www.L-I-E.com/artists.htm http://www.zend.com | (this has nothing to do with Zend, duh!)
