It makes sense on windows path scheme, its the same as when windows > looks for dlls, local dir, then system dir, then windows dir. The people having problems do not know about this. They look at the phpinfo() output and do not find any pathnames listed here. If the phpinfo() output listed pathnames, they would instinctively do the right thing. Are the pathnames checked by Windows static or are they dependent on some other information (environment variables or similar external configuration sources)? Is there a way to retrieve the pathnames Windows is actually, really looking at and print them?
