So i have a project where I send spotify track URL to server and store it. I use laragon with PHP 7.4 installed, windows 11. I use that downloader. It works via cmd command line. When I try to use it by hand it works fine, but when i send it by exec() it doesn't work. I can't get any return message neither. I have tried using exec(), system() and shell_exec() functions. The problem might be with with system variables, as these might not be visible for PHP. I have also tried turning on/off server and it didn't work. I have also tried to put putenv('PATH=' . $_SERVER['PATH']) at the beginning of file. I tried to check laragon path variables itself - I couldn't see these i have added. Any other default windows commands works as should be. Any ideas on how to fix it?
Here is my PHP code:
function createFile($url, $token){
function execCommand($dir, $url){
$command1 = "cd $dir";
$command2 = "spotdl $url";
if(!shell_exec($command1. "&& ". $command2)) return false;
return true;
}
$path = "C:\Laragon/laragon/www/temp/";
$dir = $path.$token.'/';
if(!mkdir($dir, 0777)) throwError("Server error");
if(!execCommand($dir, $url)) return false;
return true;
}
I know i'm not returning any output from console, but that is post updates. Second command is definitely beeing called, i have tested it on some other commands (like mkdir)
After re-installing laragon it worked. I Have checked before uninstalling path variables and i haven't seen mine that should be in.
I couldn't modify it either so I just reinstalled it.
