Hi,

Is there any way to switch off the warning messages (that creating all the time) about the disabled shell_exec() php function?
#18 - E_WARNING: shell_exec() has been disabled for security reasons

I'm really loosing the important error or warning messages from these that creating all the time.

Thank you,
Karls

Thank you,

Hi Karls,

Thanks for getting me that info. I've found the issue and added a patch to be released in the next CMSB version. In the meantime, it's a pretty simple fix to add yourself. In the file "cmsb/lib/file_functions.php" look near the bottom of the file for this line (at or around line 285):

  if (!$is_open_basedir_restrictions) { return $r; }

And add this line right below it:

  if (!function_exists("shell_exec")) { return false; }

Let me know if that does the trick, or if you have any other questions.

Thanks!
