Re: Help! I will even Donate through Paypal, I only want to make a thumbnail of a picture through php code.

LOL, there is no error. It seems as though the does not launch the convert.exe . Is there rights I have to setup in IIS to allow a program to be run through PHP. I am not sure if there exec() command is ment for this. If it is I must be missing something :( "Rich Gray" <richardgray@onetel.co.uk> wrote in message news:EDEGIPFFGBJHCIJCMPKOOEKGCHAA.richardgray@onetel.co.uk... > Hi Kurtis > So what error do you get when you run exec on convert.exe? > Rich > > -----Original Message----- > From: Kurtis Harper [mailto:napalm@pei.eastlink.ca] > Sent: 07 September 2002 08:55 > To: php-windows@lists.php.net > Subject: [PHP-WIN] Help!
