fopen() has been disabled for security reasons

[maxiwebhost]

Hello,

I am still under 2.9 because 3.0 refused to work on our server.
However, the script doesn't anymore update the sitemaps and rather return the following error.

Code Select Expand

Warning: fopen() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/XXXX/public_html/XXXXX/pages/class.grab.inc.php(2) : eval()'d code on line 96

How can we make it works?

Beside this, are you planning to release a future version which will use Curl?

Hello,

looks like file functions (like fopen()) are disabled in your PHP configuration, please contact your host to correct that.

cURL is already supported by sitemap generator, there is a special checkbox setting at the bottom of configuration page.

Hello,
Thank you for your answer.
I am the host.

However, not matter if I set manually the config file to use curl:

Code Select Expand

'xs_usecurl' => '1',
The server still return the same error.

Beside this, PHP is correctly configured to allow fopen:

Code Select Expand

allow_url_fopen = On
and the domain name has been whitelisted in mod_security config.

Unfortunately, your script is ioncubed so I can't check exactly the piece of code where this error is reported.
Any further help would be greatly appreciated as long as I can't use at all anymore the script.

Thanks.

Hello,

you should make sure that these functions are NOT listed in disable_functions seting in php.ini: fopen, fwrite, fclose.

Also, curl settings should be enabled on configuration page insetad of directly modifying config file (the structure of config file has changed in latest version, it is stored in data/generator.conf file now)

Thank you Oleg,

I forgot to mention it in my previous message. Of course, these functions are not listed in disable_functions.

Beside this, I have no other way to modify the config file than manually because the script returns this error just after logging in!
I don't have access to the control panel or any other features of the script.
Only a blank page with the reported error message.

Hello,

please send me your generator URL/login so that I can reproduce the issue and a link to phpinfo() page on your server.

Update: file functions should be removed from "suhosin.executor.eval.blacklist" setting as well.

Oooops.
My mistake.
It works perfectly now. Thank you very much for your assistance.
