stored procedures - MySQL UDF sys_exec() doesn't work

Question

I have a trigger which calls a stored procedure with parameters which calls SET result = sys_exec(cmd);. But it gives the error "function sys_exec does not exist".

I don't know what to do, on Tuesday I have presentation and because of this code line my project won't work. The codes which I try to work.

DELIMITER $$
CREATE PROCEDURE push_message
(p1   int,
 p2   int,
 p3 varchar(20))
BEGIN
 DECLARE cmd CHAR(255);
 DECLARE result CHAR(255);
 SET cmd = CONCAT('curl https://pubsub.pubnub.com/publish/demo/demo/0/mysql_triggers/0/%22',p1, ',' ,p2, ',' ,p3,'%22');
 SET result = sys_exec(cmd);
END$$; 


CREATE TRIGGER push_message_trigger AFTER INSERT ON your_table_name_here
FOR EACH ROW
CALL push_message(NEW.id, NEW.num, NEW.name);
