I guess either the documentation lacks of specific details about the registry settings or this 5.2.8 version ignores the registry settings. For me it is important so that this setting should work because I intend to keep several versions of PHP in the future and I don't want to change the environment settings (Path or PHPRC). Expected result: ---------------- To load the php.ini from Windows Registry. Actual result: -------------- It loads the php.ini from C:\Windows ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46972&edit=1
