PHP 4.0 Bug #7666: PHP4 doesn't read php.ini with NT4/IIS

From: christoph.steinmann@erz.be.ch Operating system: NT4 PHP version: 4.0.3pl1 PHP Bug Type: *Configuration Issues Bug description: PHP4 doesn't read php.ini with NT4/IIS Hi I can't get PHP4 to parse the php.ini file on two NT4/IIS-systems, one with CGI, one with ISAPI. I tried with php.ini in %windir% and in the php directory, but when calling phpinfo() I always get the default values. There are no duplicate php.ini files on both systems. I always stopped and restarted IIS on the command line when I've tried another configuration. I also tried to set the PHPRC environment variable to the correct path. I wonder why phpinfo() says Configuration File (php.ini) Path : php.ini instead of c:\winnt\php.ini? On my local system with NT/Apache everything works perfectly. When scanning the web I found lots of messages describing a similar problem. None of the answers suited my problem. I'm neither a PHP pro nor a beginner. Thanks in advance for an answer.
