ak87 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Hi, I have to develop a test automation application. For this i need to run the command "ant cucumber" through php. This works when I do it on command line but when i use exec(), system(), pass_thru(), shell_exec() it doesnt execute it. Anyone encountered this yet? Is there any other way for me to run the command? Also is there a way to run a batch file from php? Thanks, Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/238305-php-and-ant/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmola Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Did you specify the full path to ant? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/238305-php-and-ant/#findComment-1224892 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ak87 Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 Yes i did and also the full path to the build.xml. I found out i had to do that while searching for a solution, but it still doesnt work.

gizmola Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Another possibility is that there are open basedir restrictions in place. Are you in full sysadmin controll of this server? Check the phpinfo() page to see if anything like that is indicated. Restrictions can be put in place that disable execs or restrict the directories or specific commands you can run. You can also run it using the backtick operator and capture the output and display it to see if there are any messages being returned and of course check the logs. $return = `your ant script`; echo $return; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/238305-php-and-ant/#findComment-1226001 Share on other sites More sharing options...
