PemiPop Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I have several sites, but exec() only works on one of them. phpinfo() works so I know php is working. I've even tried using the php.ini from the working site, but to no avail. Is there something missing? Thanx ...

JonnoTheDev Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Some hosts disable the use for security reasons if you are on a shared server. What are you trying to execute? If a php script you must make sure that php-cli is available on the server.

PemiPop Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 At this point, I'm just trying to run "/bin/date >/tmp/file" to make sure it works, but it doesn't. Eventually, I will run a query program that will read back the contents of an Informix database. This does work on one of my production servers. - Dave Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/163386-cant-get-exec-to-work-in-php/#findComment-862078 Share on other sites More sharing options...
