ErrorException
exec() has been disabled for security reasons

Getting the error when opening /admin.
Because of this the app is unusable on shared hosting where usually exec() is disabled.

Ah OK - it's been a long time since I've used shared hosting, so appreciate your feedback on this!

exec() is used to get the server's OS version to display on the admin dashboard.

Here's the offending line:

010e847835/app/Http/Controllers/Admin/DefaultController.php (L89)

If you remove the call to exec - e.g.:

'os_version' => 'My OS version',

does this allow you to get in?

LNT00:

I created a ticket for my hosting support and they seem to have solved it without changing this.

Excellent! No worries, I'll keep this open though to reflect that we shouldn't really rely on exec() always being available.
