Hey guys I have one php exec command that works on my remote linux server but not my windows (WAMP package) local server. I really want to create an identical workstation so I can test locally and then update my remote server. If anyone has any suggestions or solutions other than converting to linux, I would really appreciate it.
<?php
$safe_path = escapeshellarg('fake-virus.txt');
$command = '/usr/bin/clamscan --stdout ' . $safe_path;
$out = '';
$int = -1;
exec($command, $out, $int);
echo $int;
if ($int == 0) {
// all good;
} else {
echo 'o no';// VIRUS!;
}
?>

Installing cygwin
is the wrong way to go about this. Just use virtualbox
, which you can get from here, and run an Ubuntu VM. Much easier (and nicer).
