Have you tried backticks?  'echo `uptime`';?  That has worked for me in
the past... it seems, from other postings, that people have nothing but
trouble with exec() and system().

Good luck,
Ben

Subject: [PHP-WIN] Uptime script

Hi,

I'm trying to create a little script to show the system uptime (and
hopefully system resource usage) on my Windows 2000 Professional SP2
box.
I'm currently running Apache 1.3.20 and PHP 4.0.6 on it...  It should be
noted that I have MS' "uptime" program installed.

So far, I've tried using:  system(uptime);
That didn't work.  I get the following printed: "Warning: Unable to fork
[uptime] in d:\www\inc_top.html on line 58".

So I hit the PHP website, found out some other methods of doing this,
like:
PRINT exec("cmd \\c uptime");
This time it displays: d:\www>
(that's my HTTPd root dir)

How could I get this displaying my uptime, and maybe even resource
usage?
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
