PHP Exec() And Zipping Upload File In Windows
I have the following code. What I need is to zip the file
(c:webuploadsomeFile) to d:websomeFile.zip.
$cmd = 'c:zipzip.exe '. $movedFile. ' '. $finalFile;
exec( $cmd, $cmd_output );
File is being uploaded by the apache server, but it's not being zipped.
My guess "", escaping, is causing problem in windows path. Do I also
have to escape the $movedFile content? Forexample $movedFile=
"c:webuploadsomeFile".

File Upload Mac Os X Fine, Windows Xp Not ?
I've written a simple CMS (the file upload is handled by code I found here) for a site I'm working on and I thought everything was working ok until I tested it on a pc. I always get the same error on the pc which is something I wrote so that only normal jpg's would be uploaded, not progressive jpgs (this is because the site has a flash front end and flash can't load in progressive jpg's dynamically). I added some more error checking in the php file, and a very strange thing is occuring. I have tried uploading the EXACT same jpg from both my mac and pc, on the mac it uploads fine, resizes etc etc but on the pc it doesn't and in my error message it says that the file is a 'image/pjpeg'? Does a pc think a normal jpg is a prgressive jpg ??? How can the jpg change file types? this is really weird!

Below is a bit of code that opens up and reads a zip file. I'm having trouble working out how to read in line by line.

Recursive File Saving/zipping
it will keep the structure, copy it to a zip file/tar.gz/rar or whatever and email it as an attachment. Say the script is in my server root. script.php folder1/ folder1/index.php folder1/images/ folder1/images/logo.jpg folder1/images/header.gif folder2/files/super.zip folder9/some/etc.txt script.php would keep the file structure for everything beneath it and compress it and email it.

Exec() In Windows
With safe_mode_exec_dir set in php.ini, the Apache service set to 'allow service to interact with the desktop', all of the executables required in the script in the safe_mode_exec_dir and cmd.exe with read/execute rights I still, after days of head-banging and gis'ing and php-freaking, can't get this to work. I hope it is a stupid simple oversight, even if it leaves me looking stupid and simple, I'll live Right: - Windows XPSP2, Apache 2.2.4 and PHP 5.2.0 on Localhost I'll set the scene. I need to accept two files from a user and using a third party exe convert one into the other. I realise using exec() with user input is dodgy so I have concatenated the user input to a long executable string and I'll do extra checking (that they are an msi and wxs file) later. The files are passed to procConvertWix() by the user and from there passed to convertwix() where the concatination is done, and returned back to procConvertWix() for execution. In procConvertWix() I have displayed the fully concatenated string in the browser, copied and ran it from cmd.exe and it executes perfectly, so that's not the problem. Displaying the $ouput of exec() simply gives me: Code:

'exec' Creates Popup Windows
I'm running php under apache (I'm using the uniserv distribution) on Windows XP. Every time I execute an external command using backticks or exec or system, I get a cmd windows that pops up for the 1/4 second the command executes. This would all be fine, except that I'm deploying the server to run locally on the user's box, and needless to say, the popups are annoying. I've search everything I'm clever enough to understand and can't find a way to get the external commands to run in the 'background'. All of the input and output of the commands have been redirected, any shell command causes this behavious, and in all other respects it all seems to work great.

They browse through the files and can click on the 'Add to Download' button if they wish. 3. If they click on the 'Get Download' button, then they are sent to a page, which offers them all the files they selected in a .zip or .tar file for downloading.

Exec, Passthru Disabled So How To Call C++ .exe File?
I am at my wit's end trying to get information out of Streamline.net's support dept about my problem. They reply quickly enough, but seem to try and give out the least possible amount of info each time. The transcript so far is reproduced for your amusement below. To summarise: I've put up a Sudoku-solving program called Sudoku.exe. I want to call it in a php script to solve a puzzle and output the solution. It works fine with Apache/php on my own machine, but it seems Streamline.net disable exec, passthru etc. They eventually say, cryptically: ' CGI executables are supported, however this is very different from executing a program from within a PHP script'. So how would I call my Sudoko.exe file? The 'dialog': My last question seems to have been 'fixed' before being answered, so I'll have another go. I'm trying to call an .exe file on the server but get an 'unable to fork' error message. I have Apache/php installed locally and it works fine. Do you have to turn on 'cmd.exe' permissions or something? Try it yourself at: Warning: passthru(): Unable to fork [Sudoku.exe (argument...)] in (.php file...) It's the same with exec() as well. We do not support passthru or exec functions. So how would I call my Sudoku.exe program from a php script? I do not want 'scripting help', I just want to use some of the functions that you offer as a host and which I have paid for. As I have said what I am trying to do works perfectly on my machine, so it must be a question of something you have to enable your end. What do you mean you don't support passthru or exec? They are both standard php commands. . You asked "how would I call my Sudoku.exe program from a php script?" clearly this is asking us how you can use scripting? Certain functions are disabled in PHP for security reasons. Which functions are 'disabled in PHP for security reasons' ? You can find this out with the inbuilt php function phpinfo() Could you tell me where on the page that phpinfo() produces these functions are listed? For example, passthru() does not appear to be on the page. . search for "disable_functions" on that page. disable_functions lists 'no value'. So again, could you tell me where I can find the list of standard php functions which you have disabled? Please can you provide a link to your phpinfo file so we can investigate this further. We had previously checked this on a linux server, which showed the functions that have been disabled. We've passed this on to an engineer to investigate further. For your information the following are disabled: shell_exec,exec,system,passthru,popen Your knowledge base says: Q. Are CGI (Common Gateway Interface) executables supported? A. Yes these are supported on either the Windows and Linux servers But you are telling me that the only php functions which can call my executable are disabled. Will you clarify once and for all if I can call my exe file or not. I AM NOT ASKING FOR SCRIPTING HELP, I have books about that. I just want to know if I can do ON YOUR SERVER what you say I can do, and if not why not.

And instead of zipping one big file, i want to zip multiple files instead. Firstly, it will be much easier to download. The problem is that i managed to zip the first file and able to download it. So get the next part of the file, i will need to press a button called Extract Next. However, even though i did that, when i press start download button, i will still be downloading the first file.

Exec And Shell_exec Not Executing Batch File Properly
I am running Apache and PHP on windows XP. Latest versions of them all. I am trying to execute a simple .bat batch file that simply copies 4 files from one location to the batch files location. The php exec command runs like this: V:Corehtdocswp ransfer.bat Y:folder here the batch file is executed and the command following is thrown into the batch file to specify where the files that need to be copied are. The Y: directory is in windows considered to be a network drive, although it is really just a folder on the same machine, i did this because there are spaces in the folder names on its way to where I need the information copied from i.e. "Program Files" When I run this in the command prompt by entering this in manually it runs perfectly. However when running exec in the PHP script nothing happens; when I run shell_exec it gives me the output and it shows that every line in the batch file is executed however it does not actually copy anything. Looking into my apache error log I see that this is related: "The system cannot find the drive specified." Now what I am wondering is, how is it that I can run this script manually but apache tells me I cannot. My permissions are set to allow all and deny nothing since it is a machine well tucked into a safe place. Apache resides on the machine in C: eactorcore and it also setup a virtual drive as v:core. Trying both does not work.

PHP Is Looking For Php.ini File In C:windows
As the installation txt suggests, I have left my php.ini file inside the c:php directory... but running phpinfo() shows that my php.ini file is in c:windows as shown below. Configuration File (php.ini path) - C:WINDOWS Well there is no php.ini file in my windows directory, so I'm not sure where it's getting it's configuration settings from... unless I suppose they're built into the executable somewhere if no php.ini file is found. My questions is - why php is not locating my php.ini file that is located in the c:php directory? I'd rather not move it to the windows directory so I can keep everything nice and tidy like the installation file suggests. BTW - This is a brand new laptop I'm installing PHP on so there is (I just double checked) no PHP.ini file in the c:windows directory. The path is set to include c:php... and opening a DOS prompt and typing "php" is a recognizable command regardless of my current directory. This is the 2nd machine I have had this same problem with. I'm still confused...
