Dave Kreskowiak23-Feb-10 4:00 Dave Kreskowiak 23-Feb-10 4:00  It's possible, so long as the .php code you're running does not put up a user interface or require user interaction at all. Look into the WMI Win32_Process class and you'll find that you can launch remote processes, with some restrictions. Running code on a remote box is a HUGE security risk, so it's not going to be a simple little process to do.

Re: requesting the run of a .php file? andyxfun23-Feb-10 4:15 andyxfun 23-Feb-10 4:15  it is all for a school project so security is not one of my problems... anyway,i only need php to do some basic operations on serverside like connecting to databases, adding-retrieving information and so on,and i understand that i cannot use any user interface. thanx for the info, awaiting some more exact instructions. i am grateful,though!

All you need are the classes in the System.Management namespace (covered in the MSDN documentation), the WMI Win32_Process class (a little Google goes a long way here), and some curiosity, imagination, and time. Anything beyond that is spoon feeding you the answers, and I'm not going to do you that injustice.

That is what I use to develop and test my web site. Luc Pattyn [Forum Guidelines] [Why QA sucks] [My Articles] I only read code that is properly formatted, adding PRE tags is the easiest way to obtain that. All Toronto weekends should be extremely wet until we get it automated in regular forums, not just QA. Re: requesting the run of a .php file? andyxfun23-Feb-10 4:35 andyxfun 23-Feb-10 4:35  thanks but...unfortunately, this is not the case... i am a web developer and have a lot more experience than i have in C#... i already have an apache server with a mysql database and php installed on my local machine, along with other tools but this project is meant to be run from any machine like a normal program, without the need of additional software installed,other than .net framework... i have the possibility to use the advantage of server-side scripting,as this does not need the actual host of the program to own any other software packages. thanks for trying though!

Would it help if you could run PHP on .NET[^]? The website has some very cool examples I are Troll Re: requesting the run of a .php file? andyxfun23-Feb-10 6:50 andyxfun 23-Feb-10 6:50  thanks for answering,gonna try that out Re: requesting the run of a .php file? andyxfun23-Feb-10 6:54 andyxfun 23-Feb-10 6:54  damn!...seems to be some kind of extension to .net or something like that...(not really enough time to eat the whole information...) unfortunately,i can't use no extensions for the project itself to work... gonna keep as a last resort,though... Re: requesting the run of a .php file? Saksida Bojan23-Feb-10 7:13 Saksida Bojan 23-Feb-10 7:13  I Still don't know how exactly you want, let me ask this way: You have a .php script on a Server and you have C# application on different computer. And you want to send info to that php and it returns you desired information, Like similar behaviour that uses torrent tracker, usably: 'http:\\sometorrent.org\annouce.php' If so this is similar behaviour as web browser. Maybe this will help: http://www.jibbering.com/2002/4/httprequest.html http://developer.yahoo.com/dotnet/howto-xml_cs.html
