hi, i want to do a svn update (subversion) from php using exec (or system)

now, this works:

exec("ls; pwd",$out);
foreach($out as $line)echo"<br/>$line\n";

and this also works and print me the help from subversion:

exec("svn help",$out);
foreach($out as $line)echo"<br/>$line\n";

but this doesnt work:

exec("svn update",$out);
foreach($out as $line)echo"<br/>$line\n";

dont print anything... dont update the files, pwd returns me the
correct path...

any ideas? im using cpanel... php5 and fedora 4 php runs as nobody...

Please try:

svn update 2>&1

To maybe see some errors.

Is it possible you need to provide some type of authentication? `svn
update` may be asking for input your exec call isn't providing.

Hi,

In many apps the messages comes as STDERR, so try:

exec("svn update 2>&1", $out);

$cmd = "svn up";
$cmd .= " --username $user --p***word $p*** --non-interactive --revision $rev";

Did 'nobody' do the initial checkout?

If not, 'nobody' probably can't have permission to do the update.

[shudder] Having a bunch of root owned files set to 777 is definitely
the wrong way to go... Think about it for awhile.

As far as the OS Error goes, we don't even know exactly what is wrong
here...

Maybe the PHP user can't run svn

maybe the PHP user can run svn, but can't alter the hidden .svn files
that you probably didn't chmod.

Maybe...

I'd suggest doing an 'su' to the PHP User and trying to do svn update
on the command line, before you put PHP into the mix.

You also should use a full path to 'svn' and you need to be in the
right directory before you do 'svn', so I'd put a 'cd /whatever; svn
up' instead.
