From various Internet posts and recent experience, I have observed that you cannot rely on proc_close returning the accurate return code of the child process. The return code also depends on wether or not you read from the stdout/stderr pipes, as my example shows. I work around this by writing the exit code to an additional file descriptor.
<?
$descriptorspec = array(
0 => array('pipe', 'r'), // stdin is a pipe that the child will read from
1 => array('pipe', 'w'), // stdout is a pipe that the child will write to
2 => array('pipe', 'w'), // stderr is a pipe that the child will write to
);
$proc = @proc_open("/bin/ls -l /etc/passwd", $descriptorspec, $pipes);
fclose($pipes[0]);
$output = array();
while (!feof($pipes[1])) array_push($output, rtrim(fgets($pipes[1],1024),"\n"));
fclose($pipes[1]);
while (!feof($pipes[2])) array_push($output, rtrim(fgets($pipes[2],1024),"\n"));
fclose($pipes[2]);
$exit=proc_close($proc);
print_r($output);
echo "exitcode $exit\n\n";
$descriptorspec = array(
0 => array('pipe', 'r'), // stdin is a pipe that the child will read from
1 => array('pipe', 'w'), // stdout is a pipe that the child will write to
2 => array('pipe', 'w'), // stderr is a pipe that the child will write to
);
$proc = @proc_open("/bin/ls -l /etc/passwd", $descriptorspec, $pipes);
fclose($pipes[0]);
fclose($pipes[1]);
fclose($pipes[2]);
$exit=proc_close($proc);
echo "exitcode $exit\n\n";
$descriptorspec = array(
0 => array('pipe', 'r'), // stdin is a pipe that the child will read from
1 => array('pipe', 'w'), // stdout is a pipe that the child will write to
2 => array('pipe', 'w'), // stderr is a pipe that the child will write to
3 => array('pipe', 'w'), // stderr is a pipe that the child will write to
);
$proc = @proc_open("/bin/ls -l /etc/passwd;echo $? >&3", $descriptorspec, $pipes);
fclose($pipes[0]);
$output = array();
//comment next line to get correct exicode
while (!feof($pipes[1])) array_push($output, rtrim(fgets($pipes[1],1024),"\n"));
fclose($pipes[1]);
while (!feof($pipes[2])) array_push($output, rtrim(fgets($pipes[2],1024),"\n"));
fclose($pipes[2]);
if (!feof($pipes[3])) $output['exitcode']=rtrim(fgets($pipes[3],5),"\n");
fclose($pipes[3]);
proc_close($proc);
print_r($output);
?>
Outputs on my system:
Array
(
[0] => -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1460 2005-09-02 09:52 /etc/passwd
[1] =>
[2] =>
)
exitcode -1
exitcode 1
Array

)
PHP - Manual: proc_close
2024-12-22
说明
proc_close(resource
$process): intproc_close() 同 pclose() 函数类似， 只是 proc_close() 只能用来关闭由 proc_open() 函数打开的进程。 proc_close() 函数会等待进程终止， 并且返回进程的返回值。 如果有连接到进程的已经打开的管道， 那么需要在调用此函数之前调用 fclose() 函数来关闭管道， 否则会引发死锁 - 在管道处于打开状态时，子进程将不能退出。
返回值
返回进程的终止状态码。
如果发生错误，将返回 -1。
注意:
如果 PHP 是通过 --enable-sigchild 编译的，此函数将没有返回值。

Regarding: "Returns the termination status of the process that was run. In case of an error then -1 is returned."
This is, at best, misleading. It returns:
* -1 on error,
* WEXITSTATUS(status) if WIFEXITED(status) is true, or
* status if WIFEXITED(status) is false,
where status is the status parameter of waitpid().
This makes it impossible to differentiate between a relatively normal exit or a termination by signal, and reduces the value of the proc_close return code to a binary one (ok / something broke).
This can be seen in proc_open_rsrc_dtor() in ext/standard/proc_open.c (PHP 5.4.44, 5.6.12).

Consider the following pseudo code:
$SOME_PROCESS = proc_open(/* something here */);
...
$status = proc_get_status($SOME_PROCESS);
...
$exitCode = proc_close($SOME_PROCESS);
If the external program has exited on its own before the call to proc_get_status, then $exitCode == -1
So consider using:
$actualExitCode = ($status["running"] ? $exitCode : $status["exitcode"] );

It seems that if you configured --enable-sigchild when you compiled PHP (which from my reading is required for you to use Oracle stuff), then return codes from proc_close() cannot be trusted.
Using proc_open's Example 1998's code on versions I have of PHP4 (4.4.7) and PHP5 (5.2.4), the return code is always "-1". This is also the only return code I can cause by running other shell commands whether they succeed or fail.
I don't see this caveat mentioned anywhere except on this old bug report -- http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=29123

Under PHP/4.3.3RC2, in case of two processes
these function may hangs. Work around is not use
proc_close, or put it after all fcloses done.
For example, this code hangs.
$ph1 = proc_open("cat",
array(0=>array("pipe","r"),1=>array("pipe","w")),
$pipes1);
$ph2 = proc_open("cat",
array(0=>array("pipe","r"),1=>array("pipe","w")),
$pipes2);
fclose($pipes1[0]); fclose($pipes1[1]); proc_close($ph1);
fclose($pipes2[0]); fclose($pipes2[1]); proc_close($ph2);
This code worked for me:
$ph1 = proc_open("cat",
array(0=>array("pipe","r"),1=>array("pipe","w")),
$pipes1);
$ph2 = proc_open("cat",
array(0=>array("pipe","r"),1=>array("pipe","w")),
$pipes2);
fclose($pipes1[0]); fclose($pipes1[1]);
fclose($pipes2[0]); fclose($pipes2[1]);
proc_close($ph1); proc_close($ph2);
