I've installed PHP 4.0.6 with Win32 installer (php406-installer.exe). Using the following code crashes PHP:
 <?php
        $m = `dir /b .\*.php`;
        echo $m;
 ?>
It works fine in PHP 4.0.5

What do you mean by 'crash' here? Does it output any 
error messages?
 [2001-08-19 23:55 UTC] andronov at ics dot perm dot su 
I mean the following thing:
1. Make a file "bug.php", containing lines
 <?php
        $m = `dir /b .\*.php`;
        echo $m;
 ?>

2. Install PHP 4.0.6 with php406-installer.exe on WinNT4 Server SP6a + IE5.5

3. Try to execute command like this:
 php.exe bug.php

4. I've got a message box with the title 
"OleMainThreadWndName: php.exe - Application Error"

When I do this thing with PHP 4.0.5 everything is OK.

Tried to verify this bug with PHP 4.1.1. PHP did'nt crash. Uses this:
<?php
  $m = system('dir /b .\*.php');
  echo $m;
?>

an this:

<?php
  $m = 'dir /b .\*.php';
  echo $m;
?>

I don't think the last snippet will crash anything ;)

So closed?

Please reopen if problem is in 4.1.1
