Can I turn off PHP

By default, Plesk sets PHP to "safemode" during installation. To take PHP out of "safemode," you need to remote connect to your dedicated server and modify the php.ini file on the server.

To Turn off PHP "safemode" in Windows

1. Using Remote Desktop Connection, log in to your server as an administrator.
2. Open c:\windowsphp.ini in Notepad.
3. Change the line safe_mode = on to safe_mode = off.
4. Save and close php.ini.

Once you have edited the file, you need to restart your Web server. You can restart your Web server using Plesk by selecting stop/start under the Server> Service Management section.
