Here is the code snippet:
//execute program
shell_exec("C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\incidence\my-manager.exe -d$date -p
$event");
When I run the code as embedded in PHP, I see a pop up window with
the following words: An unhandled win32 exception occurred in my-
manager.exe [2372].
However, when I only run the application using cmd, it does not give
me any errors.
Is there something I should try that I have not?
This is almost certainly due to something that exe file is trying to
use and nothing at all to do with PHP. What does my-manager.exe do?

Hi,
To answer your question, the exe file is written in C and creates several
output files that calculates various variables based on the user input (which
the PHP handles).
What I am surprised about is that when I run the exe file by itself, there
is no error at all. However, once I use PHP to "call" the file, it does not
crash, but I have to click No when it executes to allow the program to proceed.
I tried to follow the instructions from the document in the url below, but I
could not find the files, and I was not sure if that really is the cause of the
interruptions of my program.
Does this give you more information in helping me solve my problem?
Thanks in advance.

Do you have the source of the exe? Is it C or C++ or C#?

The
exe file is written in C, but I don't have the source file of it, since
my client wanted me to execute it using that to prevent my having to
execute several codes.
I have just tried using command prompt to
execute the command below, and there were no errors, and no Visual
Studio Just In-Time Debugger pop up boxes generated.
my-manager.exe -d24 -p20
Do I have to install Visual Studio on the machine of where my PHP is executing
this exe file?
Thanks in advance.

I do not believe that that would make much difference.

Hi, Al and those who have replied:
I think I am still in midst of this mystery, but it looks like that this
error is triggered when I am trying to run this PHP code with the lines I have
posted from a Shockwave file application.
When I only have the PHP with the shell_exec command, it is not giving me any
errors.
You are right, my errors do not come from PHP this time.

Is the PATH environment variable the same in all cases? I am not really a
Windows expert but I do know that the PATH can vary between Windows itself and
a DOS box. It may be worth checking.

That debugging window is appearing therefore you must have VS
installed on the machine you're running it on.
There are many things you need to be careful of when executing a shell
from PHP, primarily these are ensuring that permissions are correct
and that the thing you're executing does not attempt to use anything
other than stdin/out/err (i.e. nothing outside the standard C library,
so no windows etc).
The window usually indicates an unhandled exception or other
catastrophic event, in which case you need to be taking it back to
where you got it from and telling them about it. Unless the debugging
window indicates that it's PHP that's crashing not your exe. I'd
double check that first if I were you.

As you appear to know what the .exe does why not rewrite it in PHP.

For the benefit of others now and in the future (through the
archives and web searches), please keep replies on the list.
(Forwarded to the Windows PHP list as well.)
Here's a quick run-down for all of the extensions you mentioned
needing for Magento. Note that, with XAMPP on Windows, php.ini is
probably in one of the following locations (where X:\ is the drive
letter on which XAMPP or XAMPPLite is installed):
X:\xampp\apache\bin\php.ini
X:\xampp\php\php.ini
X:\xampplite\php\php.ini
1.) To get pdo_mysql working on Windows with XAMPP, edit your
php.ini file and make sure the following lines exist and are
uncommented (don't have a semicolon [;] in front of them):
extension=php_pdo.dll
extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll
2.) For mcrypt to work, you have to do the same thing as above -
edit the php.ini file - making sure this time that these lines exist
and are uncommented:
extension = php_mcrypt.dll
extension=php_mcrypt_filter.dll extension =
php_mcrypt_filter.dll
extension=php_mhash.dll extension = php_mhash.dll
3.) For cURL, it's much of the same. Edit your php.ini file and
make sure this line is there, and that it's not commented:
extension=php_curl.dll
4.) For GD, once again, edit the php.ini file and make sure this
line is there, and that it's not commented:
extension=php_gd2.dll
5.) Restart Apache and try your Magento installation again.
TIPS:
a.) Google is your friend. Always search for your answers
there before sending a question to the list. Often searching for what
you want to do, along with the keyword `howto` or separate words `how
to install` will give you the answer you need with the first result.
b.) For the official page on installing Windows extensions for
PHP, go to:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.extensions.php
c.) To find out where your extension directory is, create a
file in the web root of XAMPP (it should be the `htdocs` (without
quotes) subdirectory within the XAMPP installation directory, by
default). Name it phpinfo.php and put only the following code into
it:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
.... then access that page by going to
http://servername/phpinfo.php and finding the field named
"extension_dir" in the `Configuration->PHP Core` section.
d.) When you know your extension directory, check that to make
sure the extensions mentioned above in the installation instructions
(the .dll files) actually exist in the extension directory.
e.) Any time you make changes to php.ini or httpd.conf
(Apache's configuration file), you must ALWAYS restart Apache to have
these changes take effect.
