Exec Stopped Working?
I wonder if anyone has experienced something like this, as it seems
truly bizarre and is causing me to tear out my hair (what little there
is left of it)....
The exec() function just suddenly stopped working, for no discernable
reason. Here is the code:

Stopped Working
I have installed LAMP on my computer, and until yesterday, everything was working fine, and then PHP stopped producing any output. It doesn't matter if there is any PHP code in the file or not. For example, if I simply rename a .html file to .php all output stops. When I run either <?php phpinfo();?> or <? phpinfo();?> I get no output. php -r "phpinfo();"

Ereg_replace Stopped Working
This works fine on one server, but not on another server (both use 4.1.3). The pattern does not appear to be being identified on the new server, so the replacement text is not being added to the output. $pattern = "href=""; $replacement = "href="http://mylink.com/click.php?id=$_POST[id]&url="; $entry = eregi_replace($pattern,$replacement,$entry); echo "$entry"; Basically it should replace <a href="http://mysite.com">My link</a> with <a href="http://mylink.com/click.php?id=$_POST[id]&url=http://mysite.com">My link</a>

Forms All Stopped Working
My site was working fine when from one minute to another all of the forms stopped working. I emailed the server host who said that they restarted the mysql server (for updates apparently). Ever since that, the login form does not work, the upload form does not work, my websites' admin panel does not work. I have no clue what to do, i restored all of the databases and the files that were previously there. Everything stopped working all of a sudden so I do not understand the cause of it and how to fix it.

A few weeks ago the links on those websites just decided to stop working. I didn't change anything. Not the code, not the server, nothing. The links just stopped working all by themselves.

Cookies Stopped Working (HTTP_COOKIE Not Set)
My site, written in PHP, is working fine on my hosting service, but it has suddenly stopped working on my home server. Both servers are running 4.2.3 on apache.I narrowed down the problem to cookies not being set on my home server. When I try to access cookies on my home server, scripts fail with undefined variables. The same code works just dandy on the hosting server. When I do a php_info on my hosting service, the APACHE ENVIRONMENT section has an entry for HTTP_COOKIE. However, php_info for my home server is almost the same except that HTTP_COOKIE is missing. PHP Code:

Ftp_connect() Stopped Working (PHP4.4.2/FC2)

PHP Mail Function Stopped Working
Yesterday before 2:30, we were receiving email from the servers just fine. The same code today doesn't work. We haven't received an email for almost 24 hours now from the server. I've looked at every different way we send email: Newsletter program: works with SMTP send, but not PHP mail send (it has the option) CGI Forms: work PHP Mail pages - nothing. I've gone through everything I did yesterday, and I can't find anything that I could have changed that could possibly be making this type of problem occur. After 2:30, I picked up my kids from school, created two new pages on the domain that had nothing to do with mail, and got a CSR for a new SSL cert. Our server admin doesn't remember doing anything either. What could possibly be causing this?

Parse .html As Stopped Working
I recently upgraded an old 4.2.2 PHP to 4.3.11 One change I made after was to get my .html files to parse thru PHP. Yes, I've read for years not to do this, but I do anyway. I accomplish this by changing: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php to AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html But now, all my apache redirects don't work, and the apache error pages want to download. The .html parse thru PHP, and ofcourse .php is fine. I've covered everything I know, and would like to know if anyone else has come across before.

Connection To MSSQL Server Has Stopped Working
I made all the necessary changes to my server (windows 2k3 r2) in order to get my php page to read from my MS SQL (v6.5) server (on another machine). I was able to pull data down last night with no problem. Today, however, I get nothing. The server I'm pulling from is up and has no errors. If I change the login/password for the connection string to something wrong, I don't get an error message. In fact, the page is blank as if there was an error within the code (this is regardless of whether I use a correct or incorrect login). Yesterday when it was working, if I used the wrong login, I got the usual error message back. If I comment out all the lines regarding the connection, it builds the table just fine. I've attached my code below (stripped out some table columns and data manipulation code). I have copied ntwlibd.dll to my windowssystem32 directory and enabled the "extension=php_mssql.dll" line in my php.ini file. If anyone has seen this before or has any suggestions, please let me know... this is quite frustrating. <?php $con = mssql_connect('server', 'login', 'password'); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect: ' . mssql_error()); } mssql_select_db("CM", $con); $sql="SELECT *FROM Private_Build"; $result = mssql_query($sql); echo "<table border=Ƈ'> <tr> <COL width=ï`'> <th bgcolor='black' style ='color:white'>Patch ID</th> </tr>"; while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "<tr>"; echo "<td>" . $row['Packages'] . "</td>"; echo "</tr>"; } echo "</table>"; mssql_close($con); ?>

Mail() Function Randomly Stopped Working
The problem that I am having is that I have a page that uses the mail() function. The page is on admin panel of a store and is called from another page that lists all of the orders. Basically, the script updates the status of the order to indicate that the payment has been received and sends an email to the customer to notify them of the payment receipt. The script was working fine for months, but recently stopped working completely. (Although no error is thrown.) The only thing that I can think that could have affected this is that the host recently upgraded from PHP 4 to PHP 5; however, I have another site on the same account where the mail function works just fine. Any ideas? Code:

Mogrify -draw Text Stopped Working After Upgrade
If anyone can recommend a more appropriate newsgroup for this question? We recently upgraded from php 4.1.2 to php 4.3.9 and ImageMagick 5.5.7 to version 6.2.5. I have a script that creates a random number image as a Turing Test, and without changing that, it's stopped working right after the upgrade. But, only part of the mogrify command. Here's the line I'm using: $imagick = '/usr/local/bin/mogrify -pointsize 26 -draw 'text '.$txRand.','.$tyRand.' "'.$rand.'"' -rotate '.$rRand.' -swirl '.$sRand.' -charcoal 2 /var/www/html/verimgs/'.$mrand.'.gif' exec("$imagick"); PHP is executing the command OK, because it creates the image and does the swirl and charcoal and the rotate, but it's not doing the -draw part. If I echo $imagick it's perfectly formatted: /usr/local/bin/mogrify -pointsize 26 -draw 'text 17,23 "659"' -rotate 2 -swirl 25 -charcoal 2 /var/www/html/home/verimgs/97531.gif I can run that line in a command shell and it will perform perfectly. According to the ImageMagick site: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/c...ptions.php#draw I'm formatting the -draw switch just right. But still, it won't print the numbers onto the image. I don't get it. What may have changed in the upgrade to prevent this script from working the way it did before?

$_SESSION :: Phpmyedit Pages Stopped Working After Novell Update
Our network Administrator applied an update to our web server recently. After this update was applied (Novell update), my phpMyEdit pages stopped responding. Everything else works fine. After doing some debugging, I found that if I placed all of my pages in the same directory, everything worked. My $_SESSION vars will not transfer to other pages unless that page is in the same directory as the session was started in. I hope this is enough of an explaination. I am clueless as to why thus far. I am going to look at the php.ini file today.

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.

I have a small custom 404 page in PHP. When this page is triggered I'd like some information about the requesting client, including its reverse IP. I would like the 404 page to be returned to the client's browser immediately, after invoking another function or script that takes care of the lookup & email duties. 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?

Exec() Fails...help!
I'm very new to php, running apache 1.3.20 with php 4 on a 98 box just for home test development purposes there's probably an easier way/better alternative to do what i'm trying to do, but i'd be greatful for solutions not alternatives i'm trying to add a user to an .htpasswd file so need to exec("c:/apache/htdocs/htpasswd.exe -b .htpasswd user password) It would also be useful to run a mail server remotely with exec("c:mymailserver.exe") but neither will work, i tend to hear the standard windows error sound, but with no message. Apache error logs reveal nothing. What i'm trying to do may be impossible?, i'm new to the language so i don't know...or it may be a permissions problem? Or perhaps something totally seperate? If anyone has any ideas which may help i'd be very greatful for any advice you could give.

PHP Locking Up With EXEC?
I have been using EXEC and or SHELL_EXEC to call several command line functions. I use it mostly for Image Magick on my web servers. I run a WinXP machine with Sambar Server 5.3, PHP verison 4.3.0 ISAPI. Until lately the server, php and image magick have functioned like a dream. I have been lately having some very serious crashes where the DOS window that appears then disappears with a command call from PHP does not leave the screen, it simply freezes. The web server continues to function but any addiional EXEC (or realted) commands do not process, the DOS window remains on the screen. I run my server as a service and not an applicaiton though I experimented both ways. I have not changed my config lately other than to add maybe another dozen domains to my server's vhosts.ini file. Other than that, nothing has changed. The ONLY way to terminate the problem is to KILL THE PROCESS for the server (for sambar folks that is ntserver.exe) then restart the service. One should not ever need to do this but this is the only way to get the bubble out of the way, so to speak. The service itself will not stop, it must have the process killed. Does this sound strange. Is there a bug with PHP ... maybe it is there but it just seems so odd that it is intermitant, most times the EXEC goes of with out a hitch, but with significantly increased frequency it freezes up. Now I went into the list of processes to see if it was tying up system resoureces, it does NOT.
