Hi all,
Using PERL 5.6.1.631, PHP 4.3.1, win NT4.0 & iis webserver.

Code: Select all

[\php]
also triedCode: Select all
exec("start C:\\pathto\\PERLscript\\test.pl");
[\php]
And several other flavors, but can't get the script to execute. The perl binary & path & script has iis guest internet user permissions set to full control. So full paths are being indidated, and the binaries/paths/code has full permissions.

Thanks for any help/suggestions!
