PHP exec disabled - problem enabling. - asobiek - 07-06-2016

Hi, 
I am working on a simple control panel to start and stop a shell script. In order to do this, I wanted to use exec() or something similar. Only problem is, I get this error: Warning: exec() has been disabled for security reasons in /var/sentora/hostdata/zadmin/public_html/SITE/server/actions.php on line 

I have removed all the disable_functions in the php.ini as well as set safe_mode to off. I've also tried this in the httpd.conf:
<Directory /etc/sentora/hostdata/zadmin/public_html/*>

    Options +FollowSymLinks

    DirectoryIndex index.php

    <IfModule mod_php5.c>

        php_admin_value safe_mode off

    </IfModule>
</Directory>


I still get the error that it is disabled. What am I missing?

You can enable/disable the protection by going to Module Admin > Apache Config > Override a Virtual Host > [select domain] > Uncheck Suhosin Enabled and wait ~5 minutes for the panel to update the setting. This does create a security risk for that domain, use at your own discretion.

Such panel will be a big security issues if you ever get hacked.
