You need to go into your php.ini and turn it off, the setting is called safe_mode and the value should be 0. The location could be /etc/php.ini, though it depends.

Run "php -i |grep php.ini" in shell to find out where your loaded php.ini is located.

always this option(safe mode) should be disable?(even after transfer files from database to server?)
if this option always be disable then my site will hack soon(my server is linux)

Safe mode will indeed offer a bit more protection in case you have old scripts on your server that are vulnerable, but might make some of your newer scripts not work right. If you only use well built scripts and no hacks/mods which are badly built you should be able to run with safe mode off.
