Operating system: Windows XP
PHP version: 4.3.2
PHP Bug Type: IIS related
Bug description: exec() or system() et all cause an infinite loop of starting
requested program
Description:
------------
In a PHP script running under IIS 5.1, with Windows XP (this has been
reproduced on Windows 2000 as well), I try to execute another PHP process
and get as many php sessions as can open up till my machine starts to halt
because it goes out of memory.
Note, I have made sure it hits that line of code only once, by doing "cmd
/c Start C:\php\php.exe -f phpfile.php" and doing an echo "before"; and
echo "after"; before and after the line of code, before and after get
echoed ONCE.
This command works correctly via the commandline.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?PHP
exec('c:\php\php.exe -f C:\inetpub\wwwroot\anotherphpfile.php');
?>
Expected result:
----------------
The application to run once.. not 50-100 or more times..
Actual result:
--------------
PHP executes numerous times, for one line of code..
