how to turn off php safe mode

[starving_artist]

Whats up,

I am trying to set up a php module (photogallery) and I get the following message:

'safe_mode' need to be Off. Please request your server administrator to modify the configurations for you. \

How do I go about this?

Thanks

add vhost.conf at /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/conf/

with the following lines:

<Directory /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs>
php_admin_value safe_mode Off
</Directory>

then run

/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/websrvmng --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=<domain_name>

then run

service httpd restart

have you replaced <domain_name> with the real domain name?

 

[ibor]

hi yes i have ... but the domain name contains chars like "." "-" etc. - is that the problem ?

please give me answer ... im sitting here since yesterday only to find a way to get rid off safe_mode ... - its really important for me caus emy scripts wont run ...

THX for your support !

BTW: how to run it with putty - just the path - or do i have to make other commands ?

 

[ibor]

hi,

if theres no other opportunity ... i have a problem ... my problem is to get rid off safe_mode - i know how to change th php.ini - after apache restart - php safe_mode is displayed as off - but in configure commands its still on - so

HOW To change the php configure command settings of plesk 7.5.4 reloaded with the ssh client putty --- it would be very very nice - if someone would give me any answer - please give answer !


THX !!!!!!

ok . i think i found the mistake ^^

i thought i have to write :

/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/websrvmng --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=<domain_name>

and not :

/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/websrvmng --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=domain_name


- now my problem is solved - thx!

Ok I think I understand most of this...but by problem not is that plesk won't let me make any changes to my conf file, it says permission denied...wtf

how can i gain access to this file?

you need to become root to edit these files. Login with SSH and type "su -" and enter the root password.

 

[ibor]

hi,

you get that error cause you try to run

/var/www/vhosts/domain.com/conf/vhost.conf

but thats wrong --- you have to edit and/or make new file ... just read the following :

to edit a file u have to use an editor ... vi or pico ... so try the following with your ssh client :

vi /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/conf/vhost.conf


and then if you get a new screen ... with a look like an editor Oo - press i for insert and insert the stuff whats is here ... :

<Directory /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs>
php_admin_value safe_mode Off
</Directory>

after it press "ESC" and after that ... press "!!" - (with putty ^^)

and then there has to be a new line under the editor .. like this

:

here type "wq" - and then <enter> .

now just call the other one :

/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/websrvmng --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=domain_name

without any prefix ... and then restart apache .. in plesk - thats easier than to make it with ssh ^^
