Help setting up gallery

[mishmash]

So I'm trying to set up Mambo and gallery on my hostmatrix host. However, whenever I try to run gallery, I get a message about the "exec()" function not being enabled.

Is there anything I can do?!

Can you give us a link to the site so that we may see the problem for ourselves? It may have been an error in the installationg but I"m unable to tell you until I see it.

Actually, it works now. But I swear it didn't used to... It's just like when I take my car to the mechanics...

One more issue - how do I get my main page (at the root) to point to my mambo page?

So the site is: www.mahshad.com (http://www.mahshad.com)

Thanks!

Hmmm..

I don't work with domains so I'm not sure, but I know you could type http://mahshad.com/mambo but I know that's not what you want.
You could take the contents of the folder out of mambo and put it into public_html.

I'm not sure about this one, but do you have a control panel in your domain thing where you can redirect it to that? It's just some suggestions.

You could also create an index.html and redirect to www.madshad.com/mambo using meta-refresh tags.

It would be better to use PHP's header function, as not all browsers have support for meta-refresh tags (the same probably goes for some search-bots), so it would be much more reliable done with a SSL.
