如何更改PHP当前的脚本所有者

Question

The Scenario: I am currently running PHP 5.5.30 on Apache 2.0 which is installed on a Windows 7 server. The PHP current script owner is SYSTEM which of course has local powers but does not have access to network drives and so I am receiving the following message:

scandir(\\\MyFolder,\\MyDrive\MyFolder): Access is denied. (code: 5)

The Question: Is it possible to change the PHP current script owner? And if so, would I change this somewhere in PHP or Apache?

Answer 1

1. Open Services in the Management Console (Start -> run -> services.msc)
2. Open the properties of the Apache entry.
3. Under the tab "Log on" you can select which user the Apache process should use

This will affect PHP as well.

Note that you will have to provide the password to the account and that it will be stored in clear text in the registry, so choose wisely which account you want to use there.
