Edit: I fogot I had the directory privacy up for that url.

It works perfectly now, thanks!

Thank you wolstech.
 
I tried that before and I still can't get this function to work. The py file I'm using is as follows:

And the php I'm trying to make it to work is as follows:

<?php
$grab = file_get_contents("http://mydomain.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/test.py");
echo $grab;
?>

I get the message:

Warning: file_get_contents(http://mydomain.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/test.py): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized in ../test.php on line 3

I with the dir path instead of the url but it just returns the full code in plain text.

Am I doing something wrong?

Hey there everyone,

I have good knowledge of python but I'm still learning Php (well to be honest I started learning it for this purpose).

I have a Python script in /cgi-bin and it works fine when I go to mydomain.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/script.py. What I want to do is make it so that it starts from a Php file outside of /cgi-bin.

I tried shell_exec() but I'm getting the "Warning: shell_exec() has been disabled for security reasons..." message. I know this function can be used for malicious purposes and that's why it's blocked.

I tried some other functions but nothing seems to work or I'm doing it wrong.

Question: Can this be done without the use of shell_exec() by any chance?

I know there are some duplicate topics of this subject, but as I said I tried a few solutions posted on them and these didn't work.

Thanks for your attention!
