ID: 20976 Updated by: wez@php.net Reported By: holliwell@gmx.net Status: Bogus Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: windows systems PHP Version: 4.3.0RC3 New Comment: mysql also has a similar issue with it's my.cnf file, although it will also search for my.ini in certain, not always useful, locations. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-13 02:37:35] sniper@php.net And you can btw, name it whatever you like, just set an environment variable called "OPENSSL_CONF" with the name. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-13 02:33:49] sniper@php.net Wrong place to report this, try openssl.org instead. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-12 17:08:32] holliwell@gmx.net Hi, thanks for your efforts to make openssl extension more easy to use. The note in the openssl/README-ssl.txt adresses cleanly the problem with speeddial-links on windows system. To give more comfort to end-users - ok, renaming in a dos-box works - I suggest to ship this file with an .conf or txt file extension. It doesnt harm, is easy to edit, and will avoid upcoming bug-reports(IMHO). In the tradition to make PHP as easy to use for the end users it would be very kind to rename this file to openssl.conf or openssl.txt. And users who would like to have it named openssl.cnf could easily achieve this by renaming this file through the explorer interface (after editing).
