How to apply the security patch if no sh rights

[raunhar]

I do not have shell access on my server. How do I apply the path.

[Brent W Peterson · Accepted solution]

1. Create a PHP file called magento-patch.php using notepad or your favorite editor

<?php
print("<PRE>");
passthru("/bin/bash PATCH_SUPEE-NAME OF PATCH.sh");
print("</PRE>");
?>

2. upload your patch file to your root of your website

3. Visit your website and run http://www.domain.com/magento-patch.php

Your patch should be applied. 

Do this on a test site first!

(Thanks Brent for the response.)  Please note this is a Magento 2 question area, not Magento 1.  I think Brent answered your Magento 1 question.

For Magento 2, there is a built in "install wizard" (which we might rename in future to "setup tool" or similar to more accurate reflect its purpose). It will be able to apply patches to your site via the web interface.
