System() problem related with instalation

Hi all! I have a problem with running PHP (4.0.4pl1-90) with Apache (1.3.19-66) in a Linux SuSE 7.2 system. PHP is ok with several functions but when I use system() function it has a strange behavior. For intance: system("/bin/ls"); will try to run /ls and not /bin/ls. this is confirmed bu the httpd log: sh: /ls: No such file or directory The same call (in the same PHP script) works fine in other servers (with different versions of Apache and PHP). I tried in a server with the same version of Apache and PHP and the misbeahviour of PHP also happens. Also have tried get a httpd.conf file from a server where it runs ok but it gives the same error. Since this is a normal SuSE distribution it shouldn't happen and I have look a lot in the web wand got no answers (right.. first I used Google :-)). Thank you for the help. Best regards, Paulo. -- _____________________________________________________ |ADETTI/RSI (IS/IT Research and Development) |FP: 1B13 55A2 5045 2271 BA66 762B B2AE 7EC0 E4B3 0AB7
