For exec() to work, you need to have save_mode=off in your php.ini

So the fix should just be: edit the save_mode=on line inside your php.ini to save_mode=off And restart your webserver

The ssh command should not have anything to do with your webserver.

In the php.net documentation (http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php) They say:

Note: When safe mode is enabled, you can only execute files within the safe_mode_exec_dir. For practical reasons, it is currently not allowed to have .. components in the path to the executable.
