I'm trying to run a program using exec but no matter what I do I keep receiving a persistent unable to fork error. I currently have: exec("command.exe", $misspells); which gives me an error, so tried exec("cmd /c command.exe", $misspells); and even exec("C:\WINNT\system32\cmd.exe /c command.exe", $misspells); I tried setting execute permissions on the system32 folder and also have execute permissions on the command.exe file. I am running PHP v2.1.0, recently upgrading coz i heard there were unable to fork problems with 4.0.6. Can anyone help??? many thanks in advance Mike
