phpwcms Support Forum

Hi guys,
I already installed phpWCMS on a linux server for testing my new project. It worked really propper. Now I had to move the whole webpage to the destination server and what happened? Suprise, surprise: on this server safe_mode is switched = On. Though I called the ISP and they told me, that they're not gonna switch it off.

My question: is there any possibility to run phpWCMS 2.7.0-pl1 without switching safe_mode off?

For your support a big thanx,
Zweezo

Hi Zweezo,

so try to turn the save_mode Off with a file named php.ini with this content in the /root Path of your installation. (where you find the index.php).

What the hell is "phpWCMS 2.7.0-pl1"

Hey Knut,
thanks for your advice, I hope I got you right, but I'm not allowed, or able to turn it off! The server is a shared one, though they won't turn it off because of safety aspects. There must be another solution.

Have you tried it?

Shouldn't really be a problem... except prolly can't use ImageMagick (use GD2 instead).

Indeed, DeXXus are right. You need it only to run ImageMagick.

- DB filled with data?
- no ftp-error during upload?
- Files & Folder settings ok?

alternatily you could ask your host to install php as a cgi script and relax a numberof safe mod settings for you - although phpwcms will work with safe_mode on in most situations.
