I am trying to run a command using shell_exec but its not returning any output. When I copy the command into command prompt it works like a charm.
Here is the command I'm trying to run.
$result = shell_exec('android update project -p "C:\xampp\htdocs\appBuilder" -t 1');
$result
is returning an empty string. When I run the command in command prompt, it shows a message saying the build.xml
file was generated successfully. It should be showing the success message in $result
.
If I run just the command android update project -p "C:\xampp\htdocs\appBuilder" -t 1
in command prompt, it works.
FYI: This command is to generate a build.xml
file for an android application. I'm also running this on a local web server using xampp.
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
