disabled for security reasons

[yellowled]

Uploading an image to the media db (new blog, v1.5.5) gives me:

Warning: escapeshellcmd() has been disabled for security reasons in /www/htdocs/xxx/serendipity/include/functions_images.inc.php on line 667

Warning: exec() has been disabled for security reasons in /www/htdocs/xxx/serendipity/include/functions_images.inc.php on line 669

Never experienced anything like this. Uploading still works, but S9y doesn't generate a thumbnail.

Any ideas?

Talk with your provider. The shell commands are used for image magick.

Yup. ImageMagick can only be used if PHP is run as CGI, not as an apache module. That doesn't sound like something I'd want, so GDLib it is. (Which works just as well.)

Thanks.

Is that what they told you? On their servers! Its not true in general.
I used mine with module for years now.

Try and set to .htaccess

Code: Select all

AddHandler php-fastcgi .php

and then use IM.

Right, it's only on their servers/in the "smaller" web hosting plans. But never mind, GDLib is doing pretty much all I need.
