passthru gives error in httpd/error_log
I'm trying to run a super simple command through passthru.
Here's my test.php file: <html><body> <? passthru('ls -l'); ?> </body></html> It works if run directly with "php test.php". When this is run from the browser, there is no output, and the following error is logged in /var/log/httpd/error_log : sh: /ls: No such file or directory What does this mean ? Any command I try instead of "ls -l", gives a similar error. The funky thing is that it HAS worked, but now it doesn't, and I have no idea what happened. Any clues and hints are much appreciated. /Jesper

And with permissions set to 777. Even on the dir. No go. Still the same error log message : "sh: /ls: No such file or directory". Specifying a specific path will give, for instance : "sh: /bin/ls: No such file or directory". This seems impossible, as the file is clearly there, but I can't find any more info on this message. /Jesper

Find out what funky thing it was that you did to make it stop working. Are you using safe mode and is "safe_mode_exec_dir" set appropriately? -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz /* What is research but a blind date with knowledge? -- Will Harvey */
