Please include the list when replying, or let me know where to send the invoice. And please don’t top-post; it’s against the rules not to mention incredibly annoying: http://git.php.net/?p=php-src.git;a=blob_plain;f=README.MAILINGLIST_RULES;hb=HEAD On Friday, Jan 16, 2015 at 9:43 am, nupur walia <nupur.wl@xxxxxxxxx>, wrote: Hi, I am trying to run a php process like 'php' path to php file.

Using proc_open pipes. I dont know how to use curl for this code? Curl is not really applicable to what you’re doing. You’re wanting to run PHP code from PHP code? There’s no need to run a new process for this, simply include the code you want to run. How easy that will be depends on what the PHP script you’re including is trying to do, but there is rarely a reason to run a new instance of PHP from a PHP script. -Stuart -- Stuart Dallas 3ft9 Ltd http://3ft9.com/ On Fri, Jan 16, 2015 at 3:07 PM, Stuart Dallas <stuart@xxxxxxxx> wrote: On Friday, Jan 16, 2015 at 9:15 am, nupur walia <nupur.wl@xxxxxxxxx>, wrote: I am using proc_open in my code but this function is disabled on my server. Can you please tell me if there is any other function that i can use in place of proc_open? Can i use curl in place of proc_open? If yes then please let me know how can i use curl to replace proc_open? What are you actually trying to do? If you’re trying to make an HTTP request (as implied by your question) you can use the curl extension if it’s installed: http://php.net/curl. If not there are probably other way to accomplish what you’re trying to do, but we’ll need details to be able to help any further. -Stuart -- Stuart Dallas 3ft9 Ltd http://3ft9.com/
