proc-open

Warning: proc_open(): Missing handle qualifier in array in C:\...\updatedots.php on line 102 I'm trying to open notepad the close it after 2 seconds. This is my code: $descriptorspec = array( 0 => array("pipe" => "r"), 1 => array("pipe" => "w"), 2 => array("file" => "logs/errors.txt") ); // Create child and start process $child = array("process" => null, "pipes" => array()); $child["process"] = proc_open("notepad.exe > nul 2>&1", $descriptorspec, $child["pipes"]); Any idea what this error means and what causes it? It is not 0 => array("pipe" => "r") but 0 => array("pipe", "r") ^^ Additionally,

I've tried to get output from proc_open method in php, but, when I print it, I got empty. $descriptorspec = array( 0 => array("pipe", "r"), 1 => array("pipe", "w"), 2 => array("file", "files/temp/error-output.txt", "a") ); $process = proc_open("time ./a a.out", $descriptorspec, $pipes, $cwd); as long as I know, I can get the output with stream_get_contents() echo stream_get_contents($pipes[1]); fclose($pipes[1]); But I can't do that.. any suggestion? Thx before... Your code more or less works for me. time prints its output to stderr so if you're looking for that output, look in your file files

I am trying to make a website where people can compile and run their code online, thus we need to find an interactive way for users to send instructions. Actually, what first comes to mind is exec() or system() , but when users want to input sth, this way won't work. So we have to use proc_open() . For instance, the following code int main() { int a; printf("please input a integer\n"); scanf("%d", &a); printf("Hello World %d!\n", a); return 0; } When I used proc_open() , like this $descriptorspec = array( 0 => array( 'pipe' , 'r' ) , 1 => array( 'pipe' , 'w' ) , 2 => array( 'file' , 'errors' ,

Here's what I'm trying to achieve: open a shell (korn or bash, doesn't matter), from that shell, I want to open a ssh connection ( ssh user@host ). At some point it is likely to happen I will be prompted for either a password or I might be asked whether or not I'm sure I want to connect (offending keys). Before anyone asks: yes, I am aware there is a plugin for ssh2 exec calls, but the servers I'm working on don't support it, and are unlikely to do so. Here's what I've tried so far: $desc = array(array('pipe','r'),array('pipe','w'));//used in all example code $p = proc_open('ssh user@host',

Here's the situation: I wrote a back end application, that runs on a certain server. On this server, there is a script that can be executed from the front end server, over ssh. My script will then check to see if the environment variables it needs are loaded correctly because I rely heavily on them in the script itself. This works, although not the way I want things to work. As the connection is established, the ./profile isn't loaded just using exec('source /home/user/.profile'); doesn't work, of course. Since the script is already running. That's why the script starts like this: #!/to/php
