Manage the advanced PHP functions of a web hosting service
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 case of a website hack. Only enable them if absolutely necessary (for a script or CMS such as ImageMagick, Typo3, CraftCMS, etc.).
