#19502 [Bgs]: An automatic backup of the php.ini file?

ID: 19502 User updated by: nico_mittes@hotmail.com Reported By: nico_mittes@hotmail.com Status: Bogus Bug Type: *Configuration Issues Operating System: Windows NT 5.0 build 2195 PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: Hello, This is my problem: For a few weeks now we're are using PHP and MySQL and everything is working fine. But a week ago, everything turned around (I don't know a exact time): all our PHP/MySQL-sites gave errors. So, I immediately connected to our dedicated server (Windows NT) where I searched for the php.ini file. The php.ini file was located in C:\winnt\ (this is the important one of course), but it was also located in c:\php\backup\ (I don't know the exact location, but I was sure in some backup-map in the PHP-directory. So, I searched php.ini (C:\winnt\) for the solution, I say that error_reporting was changed into E_USER_NOTICE (or E_USER_ERROR, I'm not sure). So, after this I changed it in E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE, the standard value, and everything worked fine again. But I'm now curious about the cause of this strange situation. Is it a bug? It sure was not any of my collegues, as I am the only one that connects with the dedicated server. Looking forward to hear from you, Nico Smit Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-19 13:56:13] derick@php.net PHP does not do this on its own, so the problem should lie elsewhere. Not a PHP problem -> bogus.
