[Chameleon] PHP safe mode

[Eijnden, B. van den (Bart)]

Hi list,

just wanting to let you all know that we have managed to succesfully run
Chameleon under PHP safe mode (PHP 4).

Here are the little tweaks we had to do:

1) have all the scripts and directories owned by apache (Linux only)

2) add GDFONTPATH to the allowed list of environment variables (this is
needed for the buttonizer which uses putenv):
safe_mode_allowed_env_vars = PHP_,GDFONTPATH

3) make sure the wmsparse utility can be executed:
safe_mode_exec_dir
=/data/geoservices-50/apps/chameleon/htdocs/common/wmsparse/linux/

4) add the Mapscript module to php.ini (extension=) since dl's are not
allowed
extension=php_mapscript.so.4.8.1

Best regards,
Bart
