I'm trying to run python script from php using shell_exec() but it is not working. code is mentioned below

shell_exec() is working for other commands like checking version of python etc.

P.S - init.py is working normally when I run it through cmd.

test.php

<?php 
shell_exec("python C:/wamp64/www/projectx/vc/init.py test123");
?>

init.py

from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont
import sys
image = Image.open('images/background.png')
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(image)
font = ImageFont.truetype('Times New Roman Gras 700.ttf', size = 100)
(x, y) = (150, 100)
color = 'rgb(0, 0, 0)'
draw.text((x, y), sys.argv[1], fill = color, font = font)
image.save('images/image.png')

Consider to use absolute pathes (both for image and font). Consider to use logging, to see where / why the code fails. – Mike Scotty May 08 '20 at 07:40
specify the full python path. You can get your python path with `where python` on Windows. – Tin Nguyen May 08 '20 at 07:42
