Dear List -
I'm lost on this one -
This works -
$out = system("ls -l ",$retvals);
printf("%s", $out);
This does -
echo exec("ls -l");
Please show the output of the directory listing.
Please us "ls -la"
This does not -
if( !file_exists("/var/www/orders.txt"));
{
$out = system("touch /var/www/orders.txt", $ret);
Maybe you don't have write permissions on the folder?
$out2 = system("chmod 766 /var/www/orders.txt", $ret);
echo 'file2<br />';
echo file_exists("/var/www/orders.txt");
}
and this does not -
if( !file_exists("/var/www/orders.txt"));
{
exec("touch /var/www/orders.txt");
exec("chmod 766 /var/www/orders.txt");
echo 'file2<br />';
echo file_exists("/var/www/orders.txt");

When you say "does not work", can you show what is actually not working? I
believe the exec and system functions are likely working just fine, but that
the commands you've passed to them may not be.

If I perform the touch and chmod from the command line, everything works.

Here are my commands.
if( !file_exists("/var/www/orders.txt"));
{
echo system("touch /var/www/orders.txt", $ret);
echo system("chmod 766 /var/www/orders.txt", $ret);
echo 'file2<br />';
echo file_exists("/var/www/orders.txt");
}
If I now try a ls from the command line, the return is
cannot access /var/www/orders.txt: No such file or directory
The ls -la works because the file was created from the command line.
TIA
Ethan
