ajaxgeorge Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Hi,I' m into a conversion project where some of the pages are already there as ".exe" files. I cannot rewrite them to php files since the client stick on to using "exe" for what they say security reasons.I have to use "Apache 2.0" webserver and php5. Is it possible to run the existing EXE files as script files. How can i configure Apache to treat EXE files in this way so that i can call them like "http://localhost/testExe.exe?param=value".Please help me out.Thanks and regards Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/25027-running-executables-as-script/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
R_P Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I'll have to get back to you on purely serving a .exe file. Would it be possible to call the file using PHP's exec() function and then parse the data that is returned using a PHP script? In that case you would be able to better control the access of your .exe file.
