POPHP exec to run a file
text
Body
copied!<p>I am trying for last 3 hours to tell PHP to run a simple file. I am using wamp server for windows in local host (Windows 8)</p> <p>I've tried with <code>exec()</code> working with:</p> <pre><code> echo exec('whoami'); </code></pre> <p>I got response nt authority.</p> <p>Also tested with:</p> <pre><code>if(function_exists('exec')) { echo "exec is enabled"; } </code></pre> <p>So it probably works?</p> <p>I am trying to run a file called tester.php</p> <p>When I include it, its working, when I require it its working. I need to execute it in background. When I refresh file, code is working without any error, it writes to the database normally.</p> <p>When i try to exec it its not working.</p> <p>I tried :</p> <pre><code> exec("php http://localhost/diplomski/program/defender/tester.php"); exec("php-cli http://localhost/diplomski/program/defender/tester.php"); exec("http://localhost/diplomski/program/defender/tester.php"); </code></pre> <p>Not working, also tried:</p> <pre><code> exec("php http://127.0.0.1/diplomski/program/defender/tester.php"); exec("php-cli http://127.0.0.1/diplomski/program/defender/tester.php"); exec("php-cli d:\wamp\www\diplomski\program\defender/tester.php") </code></pre> <p>Not working also tried: </p> <pre><code> exec("php tester.php"); exec("php-cli tester.php"); exec("tester.php"); </code></pre> <p>Also tried:</p> <pre><code> $WshShell = new COM("WScript.Shell"); $oExec = $WshShell->Run("D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.3.13\php-win.exe -f d:\wamp \www\diplomski\program\defender/tester.php", 0, false); </code></pre> <p>Tried this, its refreshing infinitely and not working:</p> <pre><code> exec("php d:\wamp\www\diplomski\program\defender/tester.php"); exec("php-cli d:\wamp\www\diplomski\program\defender/tester.php"); exec("d:\wamp\www\diplomski\program\defender/tester.php"); </code></pre> <p>I'm starting to pull my hair out here. First time I'm trying to use <code>exec()</code> and I'm not very good with it or with the commands. </p>
