PHP Exec() function not working in Windows Server 2003 R2

Question

Could you please tell me how to run exec() command on windows server 2003 R2. I am trying to run Subversion executable file, but php keeps returning me empty array instead of output. I have set up permissions for:

cmd.exe
system32 folder
subversion/bin folder
php folders

Please tell me what am I missing. Thank you very much in advance.

We can't help you if you don't give us anything to go on. Try to configure your webserver to produce an error log. — Lightness Races in Orbit

Try running your web server under a new user account (with admin permissions).

Does something simple like exec('dir') work?

No... It only returns empty array.

I meant that $output returns empty array. I am sorry for lapsus.
