Hello.
I just installed concrete5 and did all the necessary setups and file authorization but when I try to compare two file I get the following error message:
Warning: system() has been disabled for security reasons in /web/concrete5/concrete/tools/versions.php on line 65
Can anyone help me?
The test site is hosted with infomaniak.ch which has python 2.4.4
Thank you

That pretty much says it all. Your provider has disabled the system() function, which is needed to start python for version comparisons. You'll have to talk to your provider about that.
The system() function allows php to run any program on the system as if you were at a command line. This can be a big security problem. If there is a separate php.ini for your website, they might permit it, but if there is a shared php.ini for all websites, the chances are slim that they would allow that.
