Hi ,

Ich möchte eine .bat per Php
system() oder exec() starten
die ein Datei-Download über den IE macht.

Danke Simone

I almost gave up trying to get Windows XP w/ Apache 2 to use either system(), or exec() to run a batch file.

If the batch file was this...

echo test > test.txt

it would work fine, creating test.txt...

but if the batch file was..

iexplore.exe "http://www.ibm.com"

I would get nothing. After hours and hours of messing around with this I figured it must be some type of permission problem. (dugh!)

Long story a little shorter.. You have to give Apache permission to "interact with the desktop".

Here's how...

Start>Run>services.msc
Right click "Apache...", select properties.
Click on the "LOG ON" tab
Check the box "Allow this service to interact with desktop"
Click OK
Restart Apache

Works great!
:D

HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE!
Too bad I didn't find a post like this before I figured it out myself. (I could have been working on something.)
