RE: [PHP-WIN] "CreateProcess failed" when proc_open()

Hi there! I don't know, but this may give you a clue? Grabbe from http://se2.php.net/manual/sv/function.proc-open.php "Not: Windows compatibility: Descriptors beyond 2 (stderr) are made available to the child process as inheritable handles, but since the Windows architecture does not associate file descriptor numbers with low-level handles, the child process does not (yet) have a means of accessing those handles. Stdin, stdout and stderr work as expected. Not: If you only need a uni-directional (one-way) process pipe, use popen() instead, as it is much easier to use."

Could anyone help me. Here is my problem. I need to start new external process. I do it by the next code: $descriptorspec = array( 0 => array("pipe", "r"), // stdin is a pipe that the child will read from 1 => array("pipe", "w"), // stdout is a pipe that the child will write to 2 => array("pipe", "w"), // stderr is a file to write to ); $hf = proc_open( $ex_path, $descriptorspec, $pipes ); $ex_path is a correct path to my executable. However, I get "CreateProcess failed" when it runs. I have IIS 6, running in its native process model. Also I have PHP 5.2.1. What's wrong?
