Re: Exec() In Windows

Hi, You've probably already looked into this, but I just wanted to be sure: have you checked the persmissions on "Application.exe" ? I believe PHP uses IUSR_Computer (where Computer is your computer name) to exec() anything so if IUSR_Computer doesn't have the rights to read+execute the program, it will return an error message. Hope this helps!
