hi all, i installed php4 on win98 and PWS and it works fine. But the system() and exec() don´t work with the webserver. I downloaded php_gd.dll and zlib.dll and set the right path to the extensions in php.ini. I tried it on the command line and there it works but the webserver always output an error like: Warning: Unable to fork [E:\lame\lame.exe] in E:\Entwicklung\PHP-Test\systemcmd.php4 on line 14 my code in the php-script is an simple: <? exec ("E:\\lame\\lame.exe"); ?> Maybe its because PWS or has someone a idea??
