paladox2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Hi I get this error in one of Mediawiki extension called scribunto Script error: Lua error: Cannot create process: proc_open is not available. Check PHP's "disable_functions" configuration directive. Which enables lua scripting in Mediawiki please enable what the error says thanks
wolstech Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 I'm pretty sure proc_open() is disabled for security reasons (the same goes for exec(), popen(), and the like). If that is the case, your extension is simply not supported. An admin can say for sure though.
paladox2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 Ok but could it enable it for account not the whole server please so if a user request it they can do it for that account but why is it disabled for security reasons
Ice IT Support Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Wolstech is right, those commands are disabled. They are all designed to allow shell commands to be executed on the server. Enabling them would create a huge security hole. These cannot be enabled on a per-account basis, so unfortunately you will need to find an alternative extension that doesn't require any of those commands.
