disabled exec()

[xsivejeff]

On my host server...... exec() is disabled for security reasons.  Will Coppermine run like that?
The board I use..... bbBoard v2 uses image magick but it uses it as a perl module Image::Magick.

With exec being disabled, you can use coppermine with GD (if you have it, most servers do support GD, as it comes with regular PHP distributions). Please refer to the FAQ to find out.

Ask your host if curl is enabled.  If so, there's a workaround already posted on our forum.  Search the forum for curl.

exec() is used to run ImageMagick, it has nothing to do with disabled URL fopen. You can replace it in the code with passthru() if that is not also disabled. I think there are instructions for that somewhere.

Replaced exec() with passthru().  Now I get:

Warning: Wrong parameter count for passthru() in /home/xsivejef/public_html/fiatgallery/include/picmgmt.inc.php on line 162

Yes, that's why I said to look for instructions as opposed to blindly changing bits of code.
