Cannot Get The Program To Run At All Through Exec
I downloaded the program called Snapshotter which allows you to take screenshots of webpages through the command-line. Server is Win2k3/XP (live/local). I cannot get the program to run at all through exec while the same directory/permissions for ffmpeg run fine. I cannot even get it to spit out the default output you get if you run it without arguments. exec("dir") works fine, but exec("c:lahSnapshotter") doesnt return anything. Registered the path in the PATH environment and still no luck, yet exec("c:lahffmpeg") works fine and returns data.

Exec Wont Run A Cpp Program
I'm trying to get Zonminder up and running on FC4 One of the asso programs is zmu.cpp - compiles fine. And runs from the command line IE. /u/l/b/zmu -help returns Usage. zmu -m 2 -z (real cmd) from cmd line does what it should do. However (in xx.php) exec ("/usr/local/bin/zmu -m 2 -z", $ret); doesn't. From what I can tell it doesn't even enter the program. Permissions are 755. If I change the exec to ("ls") - works, date - works. I've compared "env" - nada. SafeMode = Off. Is there ?anything? else that might cause my problem?

Exec A Commandline Program
I made a topic about this before, but got one post helping, and nothing more, even though the post did not solve the problem. I need help uploading a file and sending it to a commandline windows executable. The program is called nconvert.exe, I will be uploading dds textures and converting them to bmp pictures, then immediately offering them back for download, not storing them on the server. The command to convert a file is this: nconvert -out bmp %1 %1 being the file passed to the executable.Â

Exec() Call To External Program
We are trying to use the exec() or system() calls in a php script. The program we are trying to call takes 1 parameter in the form of: email@domain.com[usercode] There are no spaces in the parameter at all and we have tried placing quotes around just to see if it mattered. We have also modified the parameter just to send it hello. Here is what we get: With no parameters the php script executes the program where it displays the error message from the program stating that not enough parameters were supplied. We then add the word "hello" to the end after a space so the command looks like this: command "hello" and the program no longer executes at all. No matter what we do, if we supply an argument to the command the php code will not execute the program.

Php Exec To C Program That Writes File
I'm trying to use the exec() call in php to run a program that I've written and compiled from C. This program attempts to create a new file and write data into it. If I simply run the program from the shell, it writes the file no problem. If i run the program through an exec call in a php script, however, the program executes but it seems to not have the correct permissions to be able to write the file.

Use Exec To Run The Program Directly From The Server.
I have an image manipulation program that is run from commandline, I have never used exec before and I'm scared to becuase I don't want to mess up my server or anything. Basically, I want people to be able to upload an image, then arrange for some manipulations to take place on the file in a temporary batch file, then use exec to run the program directly from the server. The program is called nconvert.exe, and the main thing I want to do is convert DDS textures into BMP files, the command, from Windows "cmd" is: nconvert -out bmp %1 %1 being the dds file to be manipulated. How would I go about doing the exec part? I know how to do the upload, but not the exec.

Securing Data Between PHP Script And Exec'd Compiled 'C' Program
I'm using RSA Securid Tokens, and I'm going to write a little 'C' program that takes as input the userid (i.e. "jsmith") and the number displayed on the token (i.e. "123456") and returns a result code indicating whether authentication is successful. The compiled 'C' program will be called from a PHP script. I know that if I pass the parameters on the command line, i.e. authenticator jsmith 123456 the parameters are world-visible (via "ps -Af", for example) and this is an information leak. <BEGIN QUESTION> How can I pass things securely between the PHP script and the exec'd program? <END QUESTION> One way I suppose I could always use is to create a file from the PHP script and then just pass the filename to the program (assuming permissions and UID/GID were all set up correctly). But is there a more elegant way that doesn't create files, such as pipes or shared memory?

Launching Application
I developed an internal website (hosted in a company server), which contains a few php scripts (forms users fill out and e-mail to others upon send). I have an e-mail instruction in the scripts, with a list of e-mail addresses. I would like to change this so users can launch Lotus Notes from the script upon sending, and choose to who send the form (instead of having fixed e-mails in the script). The company has given me the path where the .exe program resides on the server.

Launching Second Script When First One Finishes
I have numerous PHP scripts that connect to our Oracle database and export csv files. The amount of time it takes for each script to finish varies. Sometimes it takes 10 minutes, sometimes 30 seconds. I would like to figure out a way to have the first script run and when it finishes, launch the second script and so on and so on.

Launching Files Locally
I have PHP and Apache installed on a windows box that is attached to my home theater. I wrote some code that indexes the contents of a directory that has some video clips etc in it, and the outputted HMTL is nothing more than a series of hyperlinks to these files, with some CSS to liven it up a bit. The problem is this: when I click on one of the links, rather than launch the file, it attempts to "download" it (even though the file resides right there on the machine anyway). In my hyperlinks, I specified to use the "file:" protocol instead of HTTP. I really just want it to launch the file.

Launching PHP From HTML Form
i build an app using PHP/MySQL/web. the APP and PHP programm are both located on the CD. step 1: i want it to a first interface (installation phase) to be an HTML page. step 2: I want it to get some informations for the installation step 3: i want the form to launch a PHP page (on the CD) and using the PHP.exe (on the CD) step 4: the PHP page send my modules using FTP step 5: once the FTP transfert is finished, the PHP page open a new page (that has been just uploaded) on the web server. my problem is in step 3, how is it possible to launch a PHP script from an HTML page which is not on a web server?? I can do it easily with a SHELL script but i prefer the graphic interface of an HTML form. I know it is either possible using GTK but i don't want to use it because i'm not surre the client has a JVM.

Launching Community Site
I'm creating a community website, and I want the following features: - members are able to write reviews - members are able to post classified ads (I'd like to be able to charge money for this) - ability in the future to create groups within the community. Can anyone suggest a content management system (CMS) or other off-the-shelf solution? Drupal springs to mind, but then I don't have a lot of experience with these kinds of builds, so I may be missing something that is out there.

Launching A Background Script From Php In Windows/IIS
I'm trying to build a PHP page which launches another php script to be run in the background. The web page should return immediately, while the background script may run for 10 minutes or something. Unfortunately I'm getting all kinds of weird behaviour.. In my main script I'm using exec() (also tried the other options) to start a ..bat file. This actually works, the batch file is launched and is able to write something to disk.. Now if I put the following line in the batch file: c:phpphp.exe -q backgroundscript.php then instantly I'm seeing about 30 php.exe processes being created, but nothing seems to be happening really. The processes seem to be dying immediately and replaced by new ones. So apparently php is trying something but fails and tries again. Both the script and the batch file work fine from the command line. Group 'Everyone' has read/execute rights for the batch file, the php script and php.exe. I have tried prefixing the command with START /b or cmd.exe /c but neither seem to make any difference. Also I tried redirecting stderr, stdout and stdin to NUL Server is Win2k, IIS5, php4.3.0. Searched the php docs, tried suggestions but it doesn't work, maybe because they use Apache. My guess is that the anonymous user IUSR_* doesn't have the rights to do something, but I can't figure out what.

Launching An Application: Does PHP Limit Network Connections?
I am having a problem using PHP to launch an application on the server. All the basics work, but I cannot launch more than 4 instances of the application. This application functions as a server itself, and I specify the port number when I launch it, so my theory is that I am reaching some limit on network connections. This is my basic launch sequence: <?php $command = 'c:Program Files (x86)myprogmyprogram.exe' $arguments = ' /Port:' . $port; exec('C:PsToolspsexec.exe -accepteula -d -s "' . $command . '" ' . $arguments . ' 2>&1', $output); ?> Note that I am using psexec because I need to keep track of the process ID number and kill the application when a user logs out. I can provide more details if needed, but if there is indeed some upper limit on port connections, that would certainly explain what I'm seeing. Incidentally, if I try this same procedure launching "Internet Explorer", my limit is 9 (instead of 4). If I launch a non-network application, it seems that I can launch as many as I want without limit. Note: I am using Windows XP Professional x64 Edition SP1

Warning: Ftp_exec() [function.ftp-exec]: SITE EXEC Is An Unknown Extension

Have tried other commands as well, get the same. Could this be a security issue or something to do with p Safe Mode? I don't know much about commands, shell, etc..

Hy there, ok, i`ll get to the problem: My php script has a function named curl(some curl options and instructions), it doesn`t matter that, what it matters: $var1 = curl("http://www.somedomain.com/somepage1.php"); $var2 = curl("http://www.somedomain.com/somepage2.php"); $var3 = curl("http://www.somedomain.com/somepage3.php"); $var4 = curl("http://www.somedomain.com/somepage4.php"); Ok, so it downloades the content of somepage_.php to the $vars, however somepage_s_.php contains several scripts which takes a verry long time for the page to download, so my script waits for each page to download, one by one, as line by line, what i would like do rezolve is to start the curl without waiting to download the first page, then the second and so on, it should start the download of all the pages at almoust the same time. That would be all, please help, i`ve lost 4 nights trying to get this fixed but no luck.

C Program And PHP
I have written this function in a C program, using Visual Studio. The PHP script executes fine, but the output is not displayed. I have been racking my brains for hours trying to figure this one out. The output from the php program should print to a file called 'out.txt'. The file is successfully created, but with no content. I am pretty sure it's the way PHP returns the results. Does anyone have any ideas? Any help would be most appreciated. int passCode(void) { FILE *phpFile, *out; size_t len; char buffer[1000]; phpFile = popen("php -f testing1.php", "r"); if (phpFile) { out = fopen("out.txt", "w"); len = fread(buffer, 1, sizeof(buffer), phpFile); fprintf(out, buffer); fclose(out); pclose(phpFile); return 1; } else { return 0; } }

How To Program OOP
I use OOP for a PHP Application Framework I am programming. I have one base class which includes all the necessary functions and variables which all the other classes use. So what I originally did was that I made an instance of the base class and passed it to the other classes. Now someone insisted that this is not the way to do it. so I used 'extends base' to make the base class available to the other classes. Afterwards it worked fine, but it didn't make the code smaller nor did it result in faster speed. I used the benchmarking script from PEAR. So I wonder whats the difference between those two solutions, both work fine. Are there some tools to analyse how much memory a script uses?

PHP Program

They have a thing like this in iHTML, but it's gettin spammed all to hell and they want a more secure route.

Using Exec()
I'm trying to use the exec() function to call shell scripts that in turn startup various programs under linux.. for example, when someone clicks on a link to restart a particular daemon, the daemon will then simply executed, either through the standalone command of /location/daemon or through the calling of a shell script that essentially performs an identical task. My problem is that exec() seems to only work through the user "nobody," which the Apache web server is running under. The scripts and programs I'd like to execute are under a user account named "admin." I've even tried chmod'ing all pertinent files w/ permissions that "nobody" could use to successfully access all necessary commands, without success, as the programs seem to crash whenever I do this.

PHP And Exec(dir)
I have been using opendir and scandir, but I want to try something else. Idea: using dir, and a) getting the result b) saving it as a file. As I have problems with executing files directly, it create a bat file and executes that. I can execute command, but by some reason I dont get any response (it should return something, and I get "") The missing response is why I create a file. I create the file on the network ( serversomewhere ) like this dir "serversomewherefilesdir" >"serversomewhere esult.txt" Here is the odd thing: dir cannot read from the network - the bat file is created there, it creates the result.txt file, but emtpy as it cannot read from the network. Reading from c: and it works.

The 404 page doesn't care about the return value of the second script at all, it's fine if it fails. It looked to me like exec() is appropriate here, is that correct? Am I thinking about it wrong?
