Dear Ladies and Gents,
That error message "Unable to fork" is stupid, because fork is not supported
under Windows, as it is a Unix command to fork two processes. Windows uses
multi-threading instead.
They should just rename the error message to "Identified PHP4 error".

Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] Exec() In Windows
Hi,
You've probably already looked into this, but I just wanted to be sure:
have you checked the persmissions on "Application.exe" ? I believe PHP uses
IUSR_Computer (where Computer is your computer name) to exec() anything so
if IUSR_Computer doesn't have the rights to read+execute the program, it
will return an error message.
Hope this helps!
Olivier
