I just uploaded and ran a PHP file that would output the user that PHP is running as, however, the process started to eat up all of the CPU.

I had a look in Process Explorer and it appeared that PHP was creating a command line process, which created a PHP process, which created another command line process etc etc.

Any idea why this would happen? This is the PHP code that caused it:

<?php
    echo `whoami`;
?>

Windows Server 2012, running PHP 5.5.6 through IIS.

Thanks.

How did you install PHP? – sgtbeano Dec 05 '13 at 14:17
It's an Amazon EC2 instance, so came preinstalled. – SteveEdson Dec 06 '13 at 14:09
Might be an idea to remove PHP and add it the recommended microsoft way? – sgtbeano Dec 10 '13 at 09:36
