Hi,
Thanks for your responce!
I've tried passthru(), shell_exec(), backticks and system().
Using shell_exec() I can get out output, when I "End task" on the winzip
program in the background.
All I get is the first 2 lines that Winzip outputs.
When I don't use any parameters, it seems to work fine, just print out the
"Copyright" message.
The command I am trying to execute is similar to this:
c:\\progra~1\\winzip\\winzzip -apr c:\\nameofzip.zip c:\\foldertozip\\
If I "echo" the command and cut n paste it to the "Run" box in windows it
will work fine.
It does not require any input, so it should not be waiting for that.
Any other ideas?
Thanks!,
David

Thanks for the help on my previous question :) I got it to work finally :) After I did
everything I tried to upload phpmyadmin to my server. I tried accessing the page but I
got this error:
Error
MySQL said:
Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)
I'm not sure what that means...

At a guess I would say that you have not configured config.inc.php3 (or
config.inc.php) correctly check the following entries
$cfgServers[1]['host']
$cfgServers[1]['user']
$cfgServers[1]['password']

My guess is that you have a password set for the root user in Mysql, but
(from the error statement) I can see that a password was not sent to Mysql
for verification. That being neccessary, of course. I believe David is
referring the the exact variables in phpMyAdmin that would hold the value in
question. Good Luck.

Hi,
This is the second post of this problem since I did not get any answer for
the first. Please, could someone out there help? Thanks in advance...
I wonder if there is any performance tuning newsgroup/faq/whatever related
to PHP. I searchead to no avail...
Anyway, my current mind boggler is: we are accumulating a large (~400k) XML
response in a string before sending it out by adding little pieces a time
(like 10-20 chars). Now this results in very bad performance -- most
probably due to the fact that the string is enlarged/re-allocated thousands
of times. I would love to pre-allocate a big buffer for the string so that
performance gets better (something like SetLength() in Delphi). How can I do
this?
Xuse me if the answer is much too trivial, I'm a newbie in PHPland :-)
Thanks for any suggestion,
Peter
