Edin is right. You need to check all the permissions to the executable and files that it uses. This is definitely not a PHP problem. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-18 18:32:39] webmaster at adamscs dot com Just because exec() works most of the time, and under certain cases it does not, would imply a bug. It is not a usage error; the very simple code I posted will simply not work. It is my belief that PHP is not properly executing the .exe so as to cause the .exe not to function. Though it does work "most" of the time, most bugs in major software are intermittent and found in rare circumstances. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-18 12:48:24] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. The fact that you can execute other commands clearly indicates that this is not a PHP issue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-17 23:35:40] webmaste at adamscs dot com Some more info: I regularly use the exec() funtion with other AD related programs (ldifde, csvde) and they don't have this problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-17 17:47:37] webmaster at adamscs dot com Description: ------------ I am using Windows Server 2003 running IIS 6 with PHP 5.0.3.3 CGI. I am coding a program that require the exec of the "dsmod" command. The command will only work when the user that it is being exec as is logged in. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php exec ('dsmod user "'.$username.'" -pwd .$password, $dsmod); echo ($dsmod[0]); ?> Expected result: ---------------- exec() to work Actual result: -------------- exec() only works when the user that is logged into the webpage is also logged into the computer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=31156&edit=1
