Help please

[kirkster]

First just say hello to everyone!

 

Hope you can help me out if possible.

 

I'm using a php page to send a command to a unix box and for some reason its chopping off half of the string

 

String below :-

 

$cmdline_start = "rsh sun52 -n " . chr(34) . "/AAHELP/live/system/AAHELP_boot_central START CSWRITE sun52_LBCSH " . $service . " Phoenix > /AAHELP/live/tmp/PHOENIX.LOG 2>&1 <"  . "/dev/null &" . chr(34);

 

Everything after the 2>&1 < part is cut off, however if i remove the < character it puts the rest of the string in.

 

Please help!

 

Much appreciated Kirky!

Hi Kirkster,

 

This just a suggestion, but try using either the html or php equivelants for your 'and' operator. Either & in html or && for php?

 

Hope that helps you

Let's use the [ code ] [ /code ] tags. It may help alot.

Try < for <, > for >, and & for &.

 

$cmdline_start = "rsh sun52 -n " . chr(34) . "/AAHELP/live/system/AAHELP_boot_central START CSWRITE un52_LBCSH " 
. $service . " Phoenix > /AAHELP/live/tmp/PHOENIX.LOG 2>&1 <"  . "/dev/null &" . chr(34);
