to run one PHP script from crontab as root..
But my basic PHP has shell_exec disabled in php.ini and when trying to run script that use shell_exec even from root I get error that function is disabled.
Do you have any suggestion how can I overcome this and have ability to use this function when executing php script from console?
My existing web host has disabled shell_exec and one of my php scripts requires it to work, so is shell_exec dangerous? Would you have it enabled on your servers or is it typical for it to be disabled?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am running into a few problems when it comes to using the above command. No it is not being blocked in the php.ini file. The issue has to do with permissions. On my old server everything worked fine until I moved over to this new server.
$who = shell_exec("whoami");
echo "$who";
When I run that commend on the old server I got that users username. Which, makes since as that means anything created via PHP would be owned by that user. In fact, every other host I know of was like that. But, on the new server when I run the commend it shows up as "nobody". How can I fix this so my commands will run properly for me and my users?
How do I enable shell_exec in an .htaccess file for one particular account, even thought it is disabled globally in php.ini ?

To disable or not to disable shell_exec and readfile.
I haven't found any possible problems about enabling readfile but regarding shell_exec, I might be vulnerable to phpshell scripts though if the server is correcly configured (suPHP, suoshin, etc.), the risks are minimun.
I installed status2k on my server and i am encountering this error.

I even tried disabling shell_exec and exec from php.ini but that too didnt resolve the issue.
Is there a way i can get this thing to run without / with enabling shell_exec?
How to disable those functions on VPS with Lxadmin and CentOS 5
show_source, system, shell_exec, passthru, exec,
phpinfo, popen, proc_open, base64_decode, base64_encodem, proc_terminate
I thought I knew enough about my .htaccess stuff to do this, but I can't seem to work it out. What I want to do is if a user visits domain.com/folder, we check to see if the folder exists. If so, show as normal (IE domain.com/support)
If a user visits domain.com/dynamicusername (dynamicusername is not a physical folder), redirect to dynamicusername.domain.com

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a dedicated server. It is a Fedora Core 6. It came with "Plesk 30 domain license". However, this license of Plesk doesn't have SpamAssassin enabled. In order to get the license with SpamAssassin, it costs an extra $30 a month.
I believe SpamAssassin by default is in fact installed on the sever, but some of my users are reporting that they are getting Spam. How can I check is SpamAssassin is running? How do I configure SpamAssassin to filter spam on all the e-mail addresses that are created in Plesk?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just leased a server through EV1. It's Linux (I think), Apache, and Plesk 8.0. I'm trying to get error reporting to work for my php scripts. I opened up the php.ini file (I'm about 90% sure that it's the right php.ini file) found in the /etc folder. I changed error reporting to "on" and restarted my server with Plesk.
PHP errors are still not showing up.

I have SSL certificated (GeoTrust) installed on my server for one of my site since last year, and it has been working fine.
This morning I found my site to be down, SSL connection not working.
I restarted httpd via WHM, and it failed to restart.
I removed my SSL certificate using WHM at "Manage SSL Hosts", then I can restart my httpd.
So, I think there is some conflicts between my httpd and SSL. Any idea how should I solve the problem? I have paid for the SSL cert for two years, and I want it to be back on my site.
in order to secure my server against instrusion, i disabled ssh root login and created a user for myself. however in order to access the user i need to enable SSH Password authentication
I dont enable password authentication all the time and i keep it disabled unless i need to do something via ssh.
Now my question will be, is there a way to keep the user i created and keep the root login disabled and password authentication disabled but use ssh keys for the user i created?
I was informed that if i opt to login to ssh via the user i created, the only way to do that is to enable password authentication as it cannot work with ssh keys. is this true?
I really hope someone can help me how to use the user i created together with ssh keys so i dont have to enable password authentication when loggin to ssh
I want to enable our server ssi server side includes (.shtml parsed).
My hosting company controls our server uptime, daily backup, server loads etc. when i request them; can you please enable ssi for shtml pages, i want to use ssi includes etc.. they suggested me use php instead of shtml for includes.
I want to .shtml, beacuse i use only ssi include header, footer same pages, also these pages search engine friendly.
Apache version: 2.0.52
I posted them please add following lines and restart apache afterwards:
Options +IncludesNoExec
AddType text/html .shtml
AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml
They added and restarted apache, but not any affect. When i access .shtml pages via web browser, page opening successfully but not parse ssi includes, example:
<!--#include file="header.html" -->
but not parse, also i cannot use .htaccess files, our server admin say restricted them because security reasons.
I requested them our server root username and password, they say to me; before give you server root password, we remove all our server administration software from server and server administration service will be cancelled.
