PHP & unrar problem, please help

[dima1236]

Hello Guys,
I am trying to make php script on unrar specific folder, this is the code i wrote so far :

    $files=read_folder_directory($fullpath);
    foreach ($files as $key => $value)  {
        echo $key;
        echo "<br />";
        natsort($value);
        foreach($value as $file) {
            //echo $file;
             echo "$fullpath/$key/$file";
             echo "<br />";
                echo $string='unrar e -y'."$fullpath/$key/$file $fullpath/$key/";
                echo $exec = exec($string);
                echo "<br />";
             
        }
    }

now if i paste the $string output into the shell it does work and extract the filers, however the $exec returns "No files to extract"

any advice will be appreciated

Thanks

I suspect it has to do with the quotes in this line

echo $string='unrar e -y'."$fullpath/$key/$file $fullpath/$key/";

there is no space between the end of the unrar statement and the beginning of the file path.

echo $string='unrar e -y'." $fullpath/$key/$file $fullpath/$key/";

Change it to that and see if it works.

yep, patt1293 is right, try it, if it didnt work, give us an example of that line executed by the script

i have made some change try this

    $files=read_folder_directory($fullpath);
    foreach ($files as $key => $value)  {
        echo $key;
        echo "<br />";
        natsort($value);
        foreach($value as $file) {
            //echo $file;
             echo "'.$fullpath.'/'.$key.'/'.$file.'";
             echo "<br />";
                echo $string='unrar e -y "'.$fullpath.'/'.$key.'/'.$file.'" "'.$fullpath.'/'.$key.'/"';
                echo $exec = exec($string);
                echo "<br />";
             
        }
    }

The way jpav did it will output the exact same results as the original.

Thanks all for the replies, it seems the PHP was correct lol, but the folder didn't have the correct permissions, sorry for that, and once again thank you for helping out.
