hi,

i've written a c++ program that converts one file type to another via
two arguments (the input and output filenames).

i want to execute this on my server, using something like

exec("myprogram.exe $arg1 $arg2");

but then I realized my server is linux, and my program was compiled for
windows.

so I uploaded the .cpp instead, and now i'm trying to compile it doing
something like

exec("gccp hello.cpp");

which returns an exit code 127... not really sure what that means.

I'm guessing I probably don't have permission to be creating files on
my server...is there anyway I can change this permissions or anything?

(or what group should I be posting this in??)
