file execution with php

Hi *,

I've an exec() command in my PHP script. For a long time it worked fine, but
right now it won't do it anymore. I've looked up if I still have all rights
and so on... But everything is ok.
I've tried to do a exec("dir C:\path\to\directory") and it works well. But
when I try to execute the script nothing happens. It's a Batch File I am
trying to start...
The return value I get is 1
But I can't find any site where is written what the return values mean...
When I type in a file that does not exist I get the return value 1 too...
Very strange the whole thing...

How can I find out what I have to do or where I have to start. I've even
tried shell_exec and I've written a BATCH file with

echo hello

Even the hello I do not get back...

Can anyone help me?

Thanks,

oklas
