note 35917 added to function.exec

If you're wondering how to catch error messages when calling exec, you simply need to use 2>&1 at the end of your command, and then error messages will get populated into your $output string (i.e. STDERR to STDOUT). <? exec("$cmd 2>&1", $output); echo $output; foreach($output as $outputline){ echo("$outputline<br>"); } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php Edit Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+35917 Delete Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+35917&report=yes Reject Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+35917&report=yes
