problem in executing a file

[ciccio at unical.it]

Dear all,

I'm using python to manage a web-site. In particular, a user insert specific
parameters in a form and, then, I recover all parameters and run an executable
file according to the user parameters. The output is finally showed in a new
web-page.
The problem is when I need to run the executable file. I tried with:

import os
os.system("file.exe parameters")

but I received an error like "cmd.exe : permission deneided"

Probably I don't have the permission to execute the file. However, the server
administrator said me that he cannot give me the permission, but I can also use
ed execute files in my folder. so, is there a way to execute a file in my folder
using python and not the os module?

Thank you

Ernesto
