OK. Checked my php.ini, the line
disable_functions =
is empty.

I finally managed to run an shell_exec from the functions.php and execute a test.php script located under /usr/lib/cgi-bin. I also managed to pass parameters to the php script. This is what I did:
$command=’php /usr/lib/cgi-bin/testcmd.php ‘.$uniquename.’ ‘.$randompasswd;
$output = shell_exec($command);

The code for test.php:

<?php
mail(‘myemail@gmai.com’,”Subject: test.php”,”shell_exec works and passes forward”\nUniquename: “.$argv[1].’\nRandompasswd: ‘.$argv[2]);
$result=shell_exec(‘sudo /usr/bin/mosquitto_passwd -b /etc/mosquitto/passwd ‘.$argv[1].’ ‘.$argv[2]);
?>

The executed test.php does run and send out the email with the passed arguments.
However the mosquitto_passwd tool does not run. I wonder why not?

Btw. the test.php has the following access rights:

pi@server:/usr/lib/cgi-bin $ stat -c “%a %A” test.php
