Re: Catch STDERR

Spontaneously, my suggestion would to pipe the STDERR output from your command to a file. I have to admit that this doesn't feel like the most efficient solution since you would involve some reading / writing to your filesystem.

Hi,

I am executing exec('some cool command', $stdout, $exitcode);

That is fine. I get what I in the beginning wanted. However, now I need to catch the STDERR that the command is generating as well. Some of you might tell me to redirect STDERR to STDOUT, but that is not possible as I need to
use the STDOUT as is to automate a process.

I know I can do fwrite(STDERR, 'Output some error\n');

So could I fread(STDERR, SOMESIZE)?

Is there anyone with experience of best way of doing this? Should I maybe use proc_open or something similar and then write it to a file, and then
read that file? Hrm, doesn’t make any sense to do that.

Best regards,
Peter Lauri
