Confirmed Update from 4.2.5 to 4.3.3 leads to unusable system when proc_open and proc_close are disabled

[silesien]

I have just tried to update Chevereto to the latest version, the update seemed to work, however afterwards, I got the following errors;

in /home/qohuvosa/public_html/bilderhosting/app/vendor/symfony/process/Process.php:1392

# Message
Call to undefined function Symfony\Component\Process\proc_close()

# URI
/dashboard

# Method
GET

# Time
2025-05-24T06:08:52+00:00 [1748066932]

# Incident 68316274166dd

I have reinstalled 4.2.5 from my backup to make it work again.

For PHP setups where functions proc_open and proc_close are disabled, the software will fail to render the /dashboard unless you disable the usage of binary tools.

If you use app/env.php add the following directives:

'CHEVERETO_BINARY_EXIFTOOL' => '',
'CHEVERETO_BINARY_EXIFTRAN' => '',
'CHEVERETO_BINARY_FFMPEG' => '',
'CHEVERETO_BINARY_FFPROBE' => '',

From Chevereto v4.3.4 (next patch) Chevereto will detect and expose the functions being restricted instead of crippling the application with a system level exception.
