[PHP-DEV] Bug #14897 Updated: unable to fork - cause solution (well, at least for me)
ID: 14897 Comment by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Old Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Open Bug Type: Program Execution Operating System: Windows 2000 PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment: Is there a way to enable access to cmd.exe so that it is only available to php.exe? Or a way of stopping php prepending cmd.exe /c in front of any calls to exec? thanks. Previous Comments: [2002-01-17 19:40:26] [EMAIL PROTECTED] this is a suggestion to the developers to do, because the only way for a script writer to solve this is to enabled access to cmd.exe which many would perfer to not have to do. [2002-01-17 05:56:27] [EMAIL PROTECTED] clarification: is this a suggestion of a way to fix the problem myself (so I can call programs), or a suggestion to the developers? [2002-01-06 22:00:12] [EMAIL PROTECTED] in 4.0.6, popen() would just call CreateProcess() with the specified command. this was ok. in 4.1.0 popen() now prepends cmd.exe /c (or command.com /c on win9x). the problem with this, is that many web admins will disable access for the web apps to access cmd.exe (eg, MS's IISLockDown does this), and hence even though the web app may have access to c:\utils\myapp.exe, a command like exec(c:\utils\myapp.exe) now fails on 4.1.0 but works on on 4.0.6. also, the hardcoding of cmd.exe should not be done. it should get it from the enviroment. summary: have commands that prepend the result of an enviroment lookup on %comspec% /c to the front of a command AND have commands that dont, so that I can call exec(c:\utils\myapp.exe); without having to enable access to cmd.exe OR any interpretation of these issues, that allow for a sensible amount of flexibilty.
