Hello

It's a mysterious problem.

When I try to execute my code I get the message "error" display so the
OR DIE message is printed BUT there is no error, my excel file is open
and everything work, so the function shouldn't execute the message in
"or die" because everything work !!!

I had to remove the OR DIE ('error'); in my code because php was
stopping the script but he shoul not !

Reproduce code:
---------------
shell_exec('cmd /C start c:\remarques.xls') OR DIE ('error');

Expected result:
----------------
My excel file should open.

Actual result:
--------------
The file is open, it's ok but PHP execute the message in the "OR DIE"
and he sould not because it works !!! there was no error !!!

And with apache 1.3.33 there is another problem with my code : the page
load indefinitely without anny error in the error log etc of apache !!!

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Ask yourself this question:

"What does that command output?" I'm not referring to the action of the
window opening, but to the result returned from running that command at
a command prompt.

Now ask yourself:

"Does the data (hint: or lack thereof) evaluate to TRUE or FALSE?"

"Under what conditions does the right-hand side of an OR operator
execute? When the left-hand evaluates to TRUE or FALSE?"
