I wrote a script to backup my Thunderbird user profile every night by
zipping the whole profile (with subfolders) into a zip file.
I use exec to call Winzip with command line parameters (see -
http://www.memecode.com/docs/winzip.html)
The script worked fine until I tried it under my Apache 2.0 installation
(I usually use 1.3). The exec command starts Winzip (I can see it in
task manager), but it just sits and pins - doing nothing. The Php
script times out.
I can not figure out what the problem could be. exec($cmd, $output,
$retval) with $cmd = 'dir 'works, as does changing $cmd to another
program in my Program Files folder. It appears that it is only Winzip
(in Program Files/WinZip) that will not work.
Any ideas what it could be?
