Here's the configure line used: Configure Command => './configure' '--host=i686-linux' '--build=i686-linux' '--prefix=/usr/local' '--disable-all' '--enable-static' '--disable-shared' '--enable-memory-limit' '--disable-safe-mode' '--disable-rpath' '--disable-ipv6' '--disable-wddx' '--disable-bcmath' '--enable-debug' '--disable-calendar' '--enable-ftp' '--without-aolserver' '--without-apache' '--without-continuity' '--without-pi3web' '--enable-releasemode' '--enable-xml' '--cache-file=config.cache' '--enable-libxml' '--with-libxml-dir=/usr/local' '--disable-simplexml' '--enable-dom' '--enable-soap' '--with-db' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-trans-sid' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--without-pear' '--with-zlib' '--with-exec-dir=/usr/local/appweb' '--sysconfdir=/usr/local/appweb' '--with-gnu-ld' '--with-openssl=/usr' '--enable-mbstring' '--disable-mbregex' '--enable-session' '--enable-pcntl' '--enable-pdo' '--with-pdo-sqlite=/usr/local' '--with-pcre-regex' '--enable-spl' '--enable-tokenizer' '--with-snmp=/usr/local' '--enable-ctype' '--enable-apc' '--with-ctype' '--without-tsrm-pthreads' '--disable-threadsafe' '--disable-maintainer-zts' '--enable-embed=shared' '--enable-cgi' '--enable-cli' '--enable-inline-optimization' '--with-curl=/usr/local' '--with-curlwrappers' '--enable-cipher' Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-06 01:20:39] [EMAIL PROTECTED] And you should really check what $output contains using this: var_dump($output); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-06 01:18:57] [EMAIL PROTECTED] What exactly is the configure line you used? Can you reproduce this problem using real Apache? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-05 08:09:21] rachmel at avaya dot com Tried with the latest CVS snapshot you attached, and the result is the same. I am not working in CGI mode. As my web-server is apache like, it supports running php scripts natively. It links to the libphp5.so created after the installation of php and makes use of it directly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-04 22:31:43] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5.2-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://windows.php.net/snapshots/ And what SAPI are you using? I guess CGI or FastCGI since there is no "native" SAPI for this odd webserver. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-04 09:49:40] rachmel at avaya dot com Description: ------------ PHP's exec function returns the wrong return value. When running script from CLI, works perfectly. When running the same script from the web-server context - 90% of the times it returns the wrong value - (-1). I am using the appWeb embedded server, which is a slim apache-like webserver. I validated there are no permission running issues, and I couldn't see any log messages sent by PHP that might indicate what the problem is. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php print "<pre>"; for ($i = 0; $i < 10; ++$i) { exec("/bin/true", $output, $status); print "exec('/bin/true') returns with <b>$status</b> (expected 0)\n"; } for ($i = 0; $i < 10; ++$i) { exec("/bin/false", $output, $status); print "exec('/bin/false') returns with <b>$status</b> (expected 1)\n"; } print "</pre>"; ?> Expected result: ---------------- All executions of "true" should print "0" to the screen All executions of "false" should print "1" to the screen. Actual result: -------------- Most of the times, all executions result in an error code of "-1" being printed to the screen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46477&edit=1
