Hi, I have been looking around for documents on http://www.microsoft.com on the generation of win32 exception errors, but I am not exactly sure what steps I should take when the debugger is triggered by either a Shockwave file application, or from an HTTP Request. Here is the code snippet: //execute program shell_exec("C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\incidence\my-manager.exe -d$date -p$event"); When I run the code as embedded in PHP, I see a pop up window with the following words: An unhandled win32 exception occurred in my-manager.exe [2372]. However, when I only run the application using cmd, it does not give me any errors. Is there something I should try that I have not? Thanks in advance. _________________________________________________________________ Search from any Web page with powerful protection.
