I am working on my school project and used pdftk in it. For some reason the whole pdftk function works perfectly fine in my local XAMPP server but when I run it in InfinityFree web server it gives me this strange error.
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function mikehaertl\shellcommand\escapeshellarg() in /home/vol8_5/infinityfree.com/if0_35010896/htdocs/Forms/vendor/mikehaertl/php-shellcommand/src/Command.php:293 Stack trace: #0 /home/vol8_5/infinityfree.com/if0_35010896/htdocs/Forms/vendor/mikehaertl/php-pdftk/src/Command.php(191): mikehaertl\shellcommand\Command->addArg('A=', './imm547e.pdf') #1 /home/vol8_5/infinityfree.com/if0_35010896/htdocs/Forms/vendor/mikehaertl/php-pdftk/src/Command.php(178): mikehaertl\pdftk\Command->processInputFiles() #2 /home/vol8_5/infinityfree.com/if0_35010896/htdocs/Forms/vendor/mikehaertl/php-pdftk/src/Pdf.php(715): mikehaertl\pdftk\Command->execute('/tmp/tmp_php_pd...') #3 /home/vol8_5/infinityfree.com/if0_35010896/htdocs/Forms/vendor/mikehaertl/php-pdftk/src/Pdf.php(616): mikehaertl\pdftk\Pdf->execute() #4 /home/vol8_5/infinityfree.com/if0_35010896/htdocs/Forms/Classes/PopulatePDF.php(15): mikehaertl\pdftk\Pdf->saveAs('./completed/mav...') #5 /home/vol8_5/infinityfree.com/if0_35010896/htdocs/Forms/Docu.php(806): Classes\PopulatePDF->populate(Array, 'mavric') #6 {main} thrown in /home/vol8_5/infinityfree.com/if0_35010896/htdocs/Forms/vendor/mikehaertl/php-shellcommand/src/Command.php on line 293
I really would appreciate the help as I am having a really hard time fixing this problem
Sorry, I can not really help you much: It looks like a restriction at your hoster: It seems to block calls to the builtin PHP method escapeshellarg().
https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.escapeshellarg
My guess is, that it has some security restrictions which don't allow you to call any shell commands at all. In this case you're out of luck. Our library does not work then.
You should contact their support and ask for help.
Closing this as there was no further feedback and the error message indicates that it's not an issue we can fix in the library.
