[Resolved] Calling scripts from PHP web page?

[Frankie525]

Hi All,

I hope someone can shed some light on my little situtation.
Here is what I would like to happen. A user goes to a scripts page that shows them a listing of available scripts that can be run. Scripts can be of types such as perl, php, shell, sql....
The user can click on a script, fill in the scripts required arguments through a web form , click run and the script runs on the server and displays the results below..or an error below.
Here is my problem. I can get simple scripts such as HelloWorld.pl to work by using exec()..but when I try to run more complex scripts( such as ones that access perl libraries) they will not run, mainly becuase the user 'noboby' does not know how to access perl libraries.

Did that make sense....Any suggestion?

Thanks!

Nevermind...figured it out.
Used putenv() to set need enviromental variables prior to calling the script.
