Is it possible to run Win32 executable on a virtual private server (VPS)?
I have created some .exe application from C++ code, and I need to let people on the internet run it, is it able to do so on a VPS? or I have to rent dedicated server?
I will take input from HTML form, pass it to PHP, and from PHP call ‘system’ to run my application with command line parameters, then get back the results to PHP, finally return the results to browser as HTML.
There shouldn’t be a problem running a Windows executable on a Windows server as long as the executable is compatible with the Windows version used.
This is assuming that you have Administrator rights on your VPS, can install the application, and sort out any permissions problems that might arise at first.
