Cannot run exec() from apache centos

I am trying to run an executable in centos by calling it from php using the exec() command. The exe runs in the command line but when I call it through php and check from the browser it does not execute the exe. I have set the file permissions for the exe. Is there anything I need to change in the apache configuration file to enable to run an executable file?

check the disabled_functions string on your php.ini and remove the exec function if it's listed.

you can also enable-it by reseting your disabled_function in your .htaccess if you have one :

php_flag disable_function

edit : as @nrathaus said. if you cannot change the php.ini file or you cannot override the settings in the .htaccess (eg : if you have a simple website-hosting solution), you have to contact the admin of this server and ask him to enable the exec function.
