In itself, I disagree. If you aren't 10000000% sure what the source code does, you're right, it can be bad.

If it's accepting input from a visitor to the website (even just as params to a program), it's potentially devastating.

I've just had a look on the menalto website, and please please please DONT run that software. Not only does it require exec() but also it requires magic_quotes_gpc off!!

This is asking for someone to take your part of the server over! It's the equivalent of leaving your bike keys in the ignition, helmet, gloves, jacket & trousers on the bike!!!

Default PHPs Exec() OFF

So I am trying to install Menalto Gallery on my website so that I can display my photographs.

I had to change from a Windows server to a Linux server so that I could CHMOD certain files and directories to enable the database to work. Done that but now have just found out that I need the PHPs Exec() to be set to ON but the webhosts servers are all set to OFF so they can't help.

I am currently with Fasthosts and need to change to a new hosting service where they can help me out. Anyone in the know?

You did not need to change, windows has permissions but unforunatly they cant be set via FTP.

You need to check that the host provider has not turned on php.safe_mode too.

If you are having problems you could get a VPS, that way you have control over your server config.

Get a new gallery program, there are many out there, and a lot of them don't require you to bend your server over and pull its trousers and underpants to its ankles............
