Hi I am trying to run an external program from the php using its exec() function. But its not executing the program I think the issue is with the apache security setting i.e its not allowing external requests to execute programs on the server. Can someone please guide me how I can enable these settings.
If your not root, you can't, this is a very common lockdown in php by host providors (at these those that know what they are doing) to help prevent script kiddies playing up.
If you are root, look in your php.ini for disable_functions, make sure you understand the serious risks of allowing this function (amongst others)
before you allow it, then consult google or php.net. You might also need to check the open_basedir option as well.If you are a script kiddie, its only a mater of time before you are caught and locked up.
