Manage the advanced PHP functions of a web hosting
This guide explains how to enable the following functions on Web Hosting (in italics, Cloud Server only):
proc_open
popen
exec()
shell_exec()
set_time_limit
passthru
system
These functions are disabled by default as they pose a significant security risk in the event of a website hack. Enable them only if absolutely necessary (for a script or CMS like ImageMagick, Typo3, CraftCMS, etc.).

To access website management:
- Log in to the Infomaniak Manager (manager.infomaniak.com) from a web browser like Brave or Edge
- Click on the icon at the top right of the interface (or navigate using the left sidebar menu, for example)
- Select Website (in the Web & Domain section)
- Click on the name of the relevant site in the displayed table
- Click on the blue Advanced Settings button
- Click on the PHP tab
