Re: php_win.exe crashes when in a directory with spaces

Simon, The problem is not with the PHP file name. It is *the executable* itself that can't be placed in a directory with spaces. The shortcut: "C:\Program Files\WinBinder\php-win.exe" ttfreader.phpw has quotes, but php_win.exe crashes.

Have you tried enclosing the path in quotes ? e.g.

php_win.exe "c:\program files\blah\blah.php"

? Regards, Simon. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rubem Pechansky" <pechansky@hypervisual.com> To: <php-gtk-dev@lists.php.net> Sent: Monday, October 04, 2004 11:36 PM Subject: [PHP-GTK-DEV] php_win.exe crashes when in a directory with spaces

Hi folks, When working on a new WinBinder demo (http://winbinder.sourceforge.net/),

I

found out that php_win.exe for PHP 4 (from PHP-GTK) crashes when called

from

a folder with spaces. For example, c:\PHP\myapp\php_win.exe runs fine, but c:\Program Files\myapp\php_win.exe consistently crashes. This can be a problem for Windows users since the applications path typically has a

space.

More specifically, php.exe (AppVer: 4.3.9.9) crashes php4ts.dll at offset 000BB8E4 with code 0xC0000005 (EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION). I'm using the files from php-gtk-1.0.1a-win32.zip. Interestingly, php.exe always runs perfectly, even on a directory with spaces (although it opens a DOS box, of course). Also, PHP 5 does not have this problem -- but in this case I'm using the file php-win.exe and the others that come with it. Does anybody knows how to find (or build) a version of php_win.exe that won't crash in this situation?
