Hi there,

I am using apache2 on my beaglebone black (rev c) debian whizzy).

I have written a simple c program to turn on and off the usr leds. I have stored this in a directory called /var/www/cgi-bin. The program runs fine from the command line, but fails to execute when I call it using a PHP exec('ledctl 0 0');

can you offer me any advice or examples?

Many Thanks
Andy

make sure that the script is 0777 or the owner is the same that apache uses and use the full path.

e.g.

Code:
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors',1);
exec('/var/www/cgi-bin/ledctl 0 0');
