it should have quotes before the 'net' and after 'servicename'
<?php
exec("net stop servicename");
?>
also, if php's safe_mode is on, you can only run programs in the
safe_mode_exec_dir folder, which would need to be 'C:/WINDOWS/system32'
if you are using the net command.

I'm trying to start and stop a service with PHP.
I've given cmd.exe the right permissions (so IIS can execute etc.) but it still doesn't work.
The script I use:
<?php
exec(net stop SERVICENAME);
?>
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
