Under Linux
exec() doesnt follow symbolic link when interpret by httpd...
I have my /home/www/cgi-bin --> soft linked to a samba mounted directory under
/mnt/Downloads/www.site.com/cgi-bin
exec("/home/www/cgi-bin/runProg $a $b");
works ok when I execute the script using > php myscript.php but fails to show the output when run
via the web browser.
When I give it the exact full path without the symbolic link
exec("/mnt/Downloads/www.site.com/cgi-bin/runProg $a $b");
everything works perfectly.
