According to this link and this answer I have to configure PHP with --enable-exif and add extension, but the problem is I don't know how to configure PHP with --enable-exif and I cannot find the way to edit php.ini to add extension=exif.so

I don't have WHM credentials and cannot access EasyApache, I only have cpanel user login with limited access..

My php version

[user@server ~]$ /opt/cpanel/ea-php73/root/bin/php -v
PHP 7.3.18 (cli) (built: May 21 2020 03:33:34) ( NTS )
Copyright (c) 1997-2018 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v3.3.18, Copyright (c) 1998-2018 Zend Technologies
with Zend OPcache v7.3.18, Copyright (c) 1999-2018, by Zend Technologies

Is there a way to enable php-exif or should I ask my ISP/Administrator?

  • You will need to have ssh access to your server. If it is a shared hosting you should contact your provider. There is no other way you can modify any server related files including php.ini – Deepesh Thapa Oct 07 '20 at 07:00

It seems you don't have full WHM access.
Php EXIF is generally enabled on most of the servers.
To check if you have EXIF enabled create a PHP file in your cPanel file manager and paste this code in that file:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

then visit that page.
It will show all PHP information. Search for EXIF there.
If it is disabled then ask your server administrator to enable that for you.
