ID: 13045 Updated by: sander Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Open Bug Type: Reproducible crash Operating System: Windows ME (kernel 4.9.3000) PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: Reproduced with Windows 2000 Professional, PHP-4.0.6 and Apache 1.3.20 (running PHP as an Apache module). A simple script: <?php echo `c:\crashtest.exe`; ?> If you run PHP from te commandline, the following output IS generated: Warning: Unable to execute 'c:\crashtest.exe' in crashtest.php on line 2 Changing the backslash to \\ or / has no effect. On Linux (tested with Debian, Potato), trying to execute a non-existant file produces no output, and no error... strange...

I can reproduce this error on Windows ME, kernel 4.9.3000 (the final release of win ME -- not a beta or anything goofy like that) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=13045&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
