Bug description: Date returned from exec command is formatted
Description:
------------
This is on Debian PHP version 5.2.0-8+etch7 running on Apache/2.2.3
When trying to get the last reboot date of a linux server, from the
command line I run "who -b". More precisely, I run "who -b|awk \'{print $3"
"$4}\'" which, on the CLI, returns "2007-10-18 04:45". When I run the PHP
command echo exec('who -b|awk \'{print $3" "$4}\''); I get the following
result: Oct 18
Obviously, this has been formatted by PHP.
To make sure of this, I tried this:
$rebootdate = strftime("%m-%d-%Y %I:%M%p", strtotime($rebootdateexec));
This get's closer. It outputs "10-18-2007 12:00AM". So it got the date but
missed the time.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$rebootdateexec = exec('who -b|awk \'{print $3" "$4}\'');
echo $rebootdateexec;
$rebootdate = strftime("%m-%d-%Y %I:%M%p", strtotime($rebootdateexec));
echo $rebootdate;
Expected result:
----------------
$rebootdateexec = 2007-10-18 04:45
$rebootdate = 10-18-2007 04:45AM
Actual result:
--------------
$rebootdateexec = Oct 18
$rebootdate = 10-18-2007 12:00AM
