Status: Bogus
Bug Type: IIS related
Operating System: Windows 2000 Adv. Server
PHP Version: 4.2.3
New Comment:
I've had this same thing happen to me. Using php4.0.6 running an
system command works fine and will return output. As soon as I
upgraded to 4.2.3 the script no longer works. I'm running win2k with
PHP4.2.3 and have apache running as a local user with permission to
exec and read the file.
I have found that if there is more than one set of double quotes in the
command it will no longer work. Also putting the command into a .bat
file will allow it to be run correctly if I call the .bat file.
Example:
<?
$cmd ="\"c:\\dialup\\rcl.exe\" -c -u \"dialup_username\" -p
\"dialup_password\"";
$output = `$cmd`;
echo "Attempted: $cmd<br>";
echo "Returned: <pre>$output</pre>";
//Attempted: "c:\supersalon\ssproject\scripts\rcl.exe" -c -u
"dialup_username" -p "dialup_password"
//Returned:
?>

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.
Thank you for your interest in PHP.

I seem to have a problem running the exec() function. I created a php
program that when user uploads a file it will automatically open an
anti-virus program and check the specific file, but the execution
didn't occur at all. Nothing happened. So I was wondering if exec will
ever work if you run any win32 executable programs using exec(). Pease
fix the bug please please.
If you can give me a solution on how to resolve such problem, please
let me know.
Thanks,
Jon
