I am running Windows 2000 sp3, IIS5.0, PHP v4.3.2 I can't get anything to execute from the exec() function calling from a webpage but I can get it to work from command line. I have granted permissions to cmd.exe, copied cmd.exe to my php directory as well as made sure safe_mode was off. When I call exec("calc.exe") from a webpage the page hangs indefinitly until I kill the process. Any help would be appreciated
