Disoh hosting uses CloudLinux with the convenient PHP Selector tool, which lets you enable PHP functions that are normally disabled by default or disable additional functions if needed. This can be done directly in cPanel of DirectAdmin.
Step 1: Access the PHP Selector #
- Log in op uw hostingaccount op mijn.disoh.nl.
- Navigate to the Select PHP Version application:
- cPanel: Found under Software → Select PHP Version
- DirectAdmin: Found under Extra Features → Select PHP Version
Pro tip: Disoh also supports one-click login via your Client Area to access this tool faster.
Step 2: Enable or disable PHP functions #
- Open the Options tab in the PHP Selector.
- You will see a list of currently disabled PHP functions.
- Naar enable a function, simply remove it from the disabled list.
- Naar disable a function, add it to the list, separated by commas.
Changes take effect immediately, so there’s no need to restart anything.
Default disabled PHP functions #
By default, the following functions are disabled for security reasons:
curl_multi_exec, dl, exec, passthru, pcntl_exec, popen, posix_kill,
posix_mkfifo, posix_setuid, proc_close, proc_open, proc_terminate,
shell_exec, system, ftp_exec, leak, posix_setpgid, posix_setsid,
proc_get_status, proc_nice, show_source, escapeshellcmd,
showsource, symlink, escapeshellarg, escapeshellcmd
⚠️ Warning: These functions are disabled by default because they can pose security risks if misused. Only enable a function if your PHP application specifically requires it.
