Hello, my aim is to allow shell_exec for one domain or one account. adding directive into php.ini did not worked (which is good for security) but whn removed shell_exec from disabled function in WHM PHP config. editor, the website still not work and shows its disabled.. So i found these guides: they mention need to edit Virtual host of a domain, but im not able to find it via WHM nor via command line. This folder contains not all domains folders, only a few: /usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/2/ Please where i can (preferrably from WHM) edit certain domain virtual host file?

  I guess this would depend on whether you run PHP as DSO (mod_php) or CGI (CGI, FastCGI, SuPHP). You can only really alter this in the vhost config if PHP runs as DSO. To add configuration withing a vhost:

  You may also want to let us know why exactly "shell_exec" is required in this situation. There may be alternatives to enabling this function that we can provide information about. Thank you.

  Yes, i have CGI, Apache SuExec, php5. I already tried to set disallowed functions php variable to be empty in the client domain php.ini but it did not disabled "exec" not shell_exec as i typed) I veriffied calling it from test .php file and it failed being disallowed. Any idea why protection was not disabled please?

  Are you using Suhosin? If so, or even if you are not, you may find this thread helpful: Disabling PHP Functions when Suhosin is enabled Thank you.

  I see you have opened another thread for assistance with this issue. I am closing this one to avoid duplicate discussions on the same topic. Thank you.
