    Hi,
    My hosting provider have disabled the following modules and my site admin panel no longer works:
    exec
    passthru
    shell_exec
    system
    proc_open
    popen
    show_source

    The error I get is as follows, when trying to login to http://mysitename.com/wp-admin :
    Warning: system() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/username/public_html/wp-includes/cron.php on line 244

    Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/username/public_html/wp-includes/cron.php:244) in /home/username/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 868

    And similarly (although I do actually see the login box), if I try login by going to http://mysitename.com/wp-login.php:
    Warning: system() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/username/public_html/wp-includes/cron.php on line 244

    Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/username/public_html/wp-includes/cron.php:244) in /home/username/public_html/wp-login.php on line 302

    Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/username/public_html/wp-includes/cron.php:244) in /home/username/public_html/wp-login.php on line 314

    …if I do try login I still get a similar, but slightly different error:

    Warning: system() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/username/public_html/wp-includes/cron.php on line 244

    Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/username/public_html/wp-includes/cron.php:244) in /home/username/public_html/wp-login.php on line 302

    I'm using WordPress 2.9.x (not sure what the minor version number is).

    Is there any way around this problem?

    thanks,
    Baronne

    I have fixed this by performing a manual update (as per instructions on http://www.lancelhoff.com/how-to-manually-upgrade-wordpress )
