I have exactly the same problem with both php5.1.0 and php5.1.1.
Putting php.ini into apache2/bin does not work either. Nor the php
directory itself.

CWD (why it checked the Apache dir) is now only searched when running
under CLI. Either this is really a bug or FAQ in the manual should be
changed to say to use Apache/bin (path is checked in 5.0 and 5.1 at
least since its the binary location).

Chris, can you try using filemon from sysinternals to see if it's
trying to access alternate php.ini paths?

When I upgraded from 5.5 to 5.1, I had to

0. Unzip 5.1 to c:\php5-win32-latest

1. Edit c:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/conf/httpd.conf and
change:
     LoadModule php5_module
"c:/php5.0-win32-200511031730/php5apache2.dll"
   to
     LoadModule php5_module "c:/php5-win32-latest/php5apache2.dll"

2. Edit c:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\php.ini and change:
     extension_dir = "c:\php5.0-win32-200511031730\ext"
   to
     extension_dir = "c:\php5-win32-latest\ext"

3. Copy c:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\php.ini to c:\WINDOWS

Step 3 was not needed when upgrading any 5.0.x to 5.0.y.

Description:
------------
PHP 5.0 on Windows reads a php.ini located at
c:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache/conf/httpd.conf
or c:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache/conf2/httpd.conf.

PHP 5.1.0RC7-dev (Nov 22 2005 08:23:50) does not read
this php.ini.  Phpinfo() shows php.ini as "C:\WINDOWS",
i.e. it has not found a php.ini

This is a backward compatibility breakage I didn't notice
documented in Steph's 5.1 upgrade notes.
