If you are the server admin, fix it in php.ini. If you are not, you need to contact the people that are.

check http://example.com/gallery/setup/phpinfo.php - That should show you all the php settings, as well as where the php.ini file is located.

ok. Make a new file, called info.php, somewhere in your webspace and copy this into it:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Then open it via your browser.

Are you the server admin for this box?

In that case, you won't be able to change these settings anyway. You need to contact your host.

There is NOTHING you can do, unless your host changes their settings. Sorry, but disabling exec() does render Gallery unusable.
