From: scott at smashcat dot org Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.4.9 Package: *General Issues Bug Type: Bug Bug description:shell_exec() cannot run some commands
Description: ------------ When attempting to call the zip command from php, it silently fails. Other commands to create and delete files etc work fine. Using correct path to zip etc. No errors, just fails. Running same command from terminal works. Test script: --------------- $zip=`which zip`; $res=shell_exec("$zip test.zip test.txt"); Expected result: ---------------- zip file should be created Actual result: -------------- Nothing. No errors, although the response variable $res contains what appears to be part of the zip file data. Seems like the output from zip is not going to the file, but being sent to the virtual terminal. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63731&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63731&r=mysqlcfg
