I *think* this could be the result of trying to ls a bunch of files, some of which you don't have permission to 'ls', so you are getting a partial list of stuff, but also an error code for trying to ls stuff you shouldn't have been doing that too, if you see what I mean... I am hoping that your real script is a bit more complicated, as you currently have a shell script that runs PHP only to run a shell script that just does 'ls', which, really, you could probably just splat into your shell script without PHP being involved... -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
