Hey all, wondering if someone could give me a hand.
Problem: Exec(), backticks, and system() won't work from a webserver prospective.
I have a small page (see attached) that calls an external program that should, with the arguments
provided, return one line of code with the length of the mp3 passed to it in seconds. This page
works perfectly fine if run from the command line (php mp3test.php), but will not show anything,
not even an error message, if run from a browser (through the apache server). I've tried
removing the quotes from the command arguments, passing the whole command as a string var
into an exec & system call, I chmod'ed the command it calls (/usr/bin/mp3info) to 777 just to
make sure, I've changed the apache webserver's user to something other than apache,
I've chown'd and chgrp'd the mp3info file to apache, I've copied the mp3info file to the php safe
mode exec directory just to be safe (even though safe mode isn't on). I'm at the end of my rope.
Does ANYONE have any idea as to how to fix this problem?
System: Fresh install of Fedora Core 3 with EVERYTHING installed & updated, using Apache,
PHP, and MySQL for the website I'm trying to build
Get ahold of me @: rtigger at shaw dot ca - or just reply to this message :)
