I'm trying to get the output of the dig command with shell_exec()
.
This is what I have:
<?php
header("Content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8");
echo shell_exec("dig google.com AAAA");
?>
As stated above, shell_exec()
is unable to return the output of the dig
command:
$ curl http://localhost/test.php
(no output)
although the command itself works fine:
$ dig google.com AAAA
; <<>> DiG 9.9.5-3ubuntu0.7-Ubuntu <<>> google.com AAAA
[...]
;; ANSWER SECTION:
google.com. 229 IN AAAA 2404:6800:4007:805::200e
[...]
;; MSG SIZE rcvd: 67
Redirecting it works as expected, too:
$ dig google.com AAAA > ~/f1.txt
$ cat ~/f1.txt
; <<>> DiG 9.9.5-3ubuntu0.7-Ubuntu <<>> google.com AAAA
[...]
;; ANSWER SECTION:
google.com. 229 IN AAAA 2404:6800:4007:805::200e
[...]
;; MSG SIZE rcvd: 67
However, when I replace the dig
command with any other command, things work perfectly:
<?php
header("Content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8");
echo shell_exec("uname -a");
?>
$ curl http://localhost/test.php
Linux lubuntu0 3.19.0-33-generic #38~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Nov 6 18:17:49 UTC 2015 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux
Why is shell_exec()
not working for the dig
command but working normally for the other commands; and how can I make it work?
Edit : The output of curl -v
as requested by @choult for shell_exec("dig google.com AAAA")
:
$ curl -v http://localhost/test.php

Does the following show you anyting?
echo shell_exec("dig google.com AAAA 2>&1");
I would use exec()
though, you can pass it a variable that will contain all the output and if you give it a returnvar it will contain the exit status.
