note 40581 added to function.system

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. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.system.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+40581 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+40581&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+40581&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
