Tried with the latest CVS snapshot you attached, and the result is the same. I am not working in CGI mode. As my web-server is apache like, it supports running php scripts natively. It links to the libphp5.so created after the installation of php and makes use of it directly. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-04 22:31:43] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5.2-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://windows.php.net/snapshots/ And what SAPI are you using? I guess CGI or FastCGI since there is no "native" SAPI for this odd webserver. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-04 09:49:40] rachmel at avaya dot com Description: ------------ PHP's exec function returns the wrong return value. When running script from CLI, works perfectly. When running the same script from the web-server context - 90% of the times it returns the wrong value - (-1). I am using the appWeb embedded server, which is a slim apache-like webserver. I validated there are no permission running issues, and I couldn't see any log messages sent by PHP that might indicate what the problem is. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php print "<pre>"; for ($i = 0; $i < 10; ++$i) { exec("/bin/true", $output, $status); print "exec('/bin/true') returns with <b>$status</b> (expected 0)\n"; } for ($i = 0; $i < 10; ++$i) { exec("/bin/false", $output, $status); print "exec('/bin/false') returns with <b>$status</b> (expected 1)\n"; } print "</pre>"; ?> Expected result: ---------------- All executions of "true" should print "0" to the screen All executions of "false" should print "1" to the screen. Actual result: -------------- Most of the times, all executions result in an error code of "-1" being printed to the screen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46477&edit=1
