How to turn off PHP Safe Mode in Plesk for Dummies.

This is a compilation of the information that I have found on these forums that helped me figure this out. Hope this helps some lost newbie, like me. What you need to type is in “â€

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. You need to access the server at it’s root, since plesk a program that runs on your server and it doesn’t have permissions to everything on your server. I lot of people tell you to use PuTTy, but I find that SSH in Plesk works fine for this.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. In plesk goto: >> virtuozzo >> SSH >> enter your login/pass for root access. (A separate window will pop up with a dos like prompt)

Must be logged in as root, and under the root directory.

Next type this and enter: “cd /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/conf “

(your path might be different, if it is type “locate domain.com/conf†and it will tell you the path)

Next type this and enter: “touch vhost.confâ€

Next type this and enter: “chmod 777 vhost.confâ€

Next type this and enter: “exit†(don’t know if you have to exit here or not to refresh or something?)

So, I guess all that creates the file vhost.conf and gives it permissions so that you can edit it.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. to edit a file u have to use an editor ... vi or pico (I don’t know what pico is, I used vi) ... so do the following in ssh:

“vi /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/conf/vhost.confâ€

this opens up a “text editor†(it just turns the screen black) - press “i†for insert and then type the following:

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

you can press enter after each line since your in a text editor now

after that press "ESC"

and after that type "!!"

a new line under the editor pops up like this:

:.!

Backspace so there is only a colon “:â€

now type "wq" and press enter

All this put the code above into the file that we created earlier

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. now we need to let the “server†know about that change so it will read that file we created

type this with out any prefix “/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/websrvmng --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=domain_nameâ€

type “exitâ€

now restart your server in plesk goto: server >>reboot

and now safe mode should be turned off and you should all set!
