I have a script that broke after upgrading php 4.3.4 to 4.3.7
Did the exec function change between php 4.3.4 and 4.3.7? With 4.3.4
exec seems to return output, with 4.3.7 exec does not seem to return
output.
For example, I ran a batch file date.bat from the php command line
interface as shown below...
D:\PHP4\php-4.3.4-Win32\cli> php -r print_r(exec('date.bat'));
Thu 07/15/2004
D:\PHP4\php-4.3.4-Win32\cli>
D:\PHP4\php-4.3.7-Win32\cli> php -r print_r(exec('date.bat'));
D:\PHP4\php-4.3.7-Win32\cli>
php 4.3.4 returns the date as expected. php 4.3.7 doesn't return
anything.
date.bat contains one command as shown below...
F:\batfiles\batch>type date.bat
date /t
I checked the latest documentation for exec to see if any changes were
noted but only found one additional warning...
Warning
With safe mode enabled, all words following the initial command string
are treated as a single argument. Thus, echo y | echo x becomes echo "y
| echo x".
Any ideas what has happened?
Thanks,
Daniel
