Hi UK Drupallers
I am wanting to install the Image Enhanced Scaling module. The module developer says, "You'll find calls to exec() in both imagemagick.inc.php and image_enhanced_scaling.module."
I cannot run exec() on my existing host - it returns a "exec() has been disabled for security reasons" error. My host confirmed, "this is due to the way it works and the protection on the server. you need to change the ImageMagic to GD as this works fine with all image scripts I know."
I approached www.site5.com (a well-known Drupal host) who said they also do not allow calls to exec().
Does anyone have a good (fast) Drupal host that allows calls to exec() ?
Many thanks

Try www.nethosted.co.uk. If
Try www.nethosted.co.uk. If security of a shared webhost is a concern for you then they may also now be offering a more secure setup then your typical shared configuration which includes access to exec().
Very fast in terms of server performance and also customer service which is second to none.

Wow. Their customers seem to be very happy. I'm very tempted to try them for my next project.
Yes, worth trying them out
It's the only way really of finding out if their setup fits your needs. They probably offer more bells and whistles than most hosts, but obviously not quite the flexibility of a dedicated server or VPS (e.g. no SSH access). Our site is very fast and we are very happy!
