Hi! I using php version 4.3.10. I have a script that used the exec function. Well it script only work from shell, but not work form web browser. My php.ini:

safe_mode       Off     Off
safe_mode_exec_dir      no value        no value

Have somebody experience in this problem?

Is it possible your mod_php is using a different php.ini than your cli php?

In addition to the thing mentioned above, make sure you check the following things : 1. Is mod_security enabled on the server? (check the logs to find this out) 2. Is the command that you want to run in the path of the Apache user? If this is not true, then you will need to give a full path to the program, not just its executable name. A good way to test this is to run your command line script as Apache. 3. Of course, checking permissions on the program is obvious.
