Re: [chiPHPug-discuss] GoDaddy hosting - (no subject)

[Steve E. <set...@at...>]

Good day -

Newbie here - I currently use GoDaddy for a small database-driven site
without significant trouble (hate their help system, though). I am
interested in Matt D.'s comment about getting a host that has "root". Can
someone explain what this means and any obvious (or hidden) benefits that a
change of hosts might provide? Many thanks.

You can check your php.ini file and if it's running safe mode no dice. echo
phpinfo();
ini_set("safe_mode",0) works for some php installs (see manual).

Or- ditch GoDaddy and get a real hosting solution that has root. It costs
the same.

I'm 99% sure shell_exec() is disabled on GoDaddy because ... well, it's a
cheap webhost, and rather than secure their servers, they eliminate problems
by not offering features.
