[SOLVED] error from .php file call in cron


Recommended Posts

Hello, im have the following in a php script, which cron runs every now and then!

[code]$c1 = "useradd ".$username." -p $(crypt ".$clearpass.")";
shell_exec('$c1');[/code]

Everything else in the script works fine, except this which returns this error to me by mail:

[quote]X-Cron-Env: <SHELL=/bin/sh>
X-Cron-Env: <HOME=/root>
X-Cron-Env: <PATH=/usr/bin:/bin>
X-Cron-Env: <LOGNAME=root>
X-Cron-Env: <USER=root>

sh: useradd: command not found[/quote]

Can anyone tell me where i have gone wrong?  if i run useradd laura -p $(crypt laurahelm) in the comand prompt it works fine.

Thanks

(im running it on CentOS 4.4)
