Solution

  • This error appears because you disabled exec and/or shell_exec in your php.ini. To debug run one of the following commands:

    # linux/osx
    php -i | grep 'disable_functions'
    # windows
    php -i | findstr 'disable_functions'
    

    If the disable_functions ini-directive contains exec or shell_exec ...

    disable_functions=exec,passthru,shell_exec,system,proc_open
    

    ... remove them from disable_functions in your CLI's php.ini as suggested in this answer.
