at the bash prompt type "where is php.ini" and it will tell you exactly where it's at. cheers, - Sebastian ----- Original Message ----- From: "Justin French" <justin@indent.com.au> | Hi, | | I can't believe I've never bothered to learn this stuff, so I apologise for | being totally dumb in advance :P | | phpinfo() tells me my php.ini is being read from /usr/local/lib, however, | there's definitely NOT a php.ini file there. | | So, I went hunting and found this on | http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.installation.php | | " | 12. How do I know if my php.ini is being found and read? It seems like it | isn't as my changes aren't being implemented. | | To be sure your php.ini is being read by PHP, make a call to phpinfo() and | near the top will be a listing called Configuration File (php.ini). This | will tell you where PHP is looking for php.ini and whether or not it's being | read. If just a directory PATH exists than it's not being read and you | should put your php.ini in that directory. If php.ini is included within the | PATH than it is being read. | | If php.ini is being read and you're running PHP as a module then be sure to | restart PHP after making changes to php.ini | " | | | My questions are: | | 1. if there's no php.ini in /usr/local/lib, is php using a default set of | settings, or another file (if so, where?)? | | 2. how do I tell php to look somewhere else, or is the solution to | create/copy a php.ini into /usr/local/lib and restart apache? | | | TIA | | Justin | | | | -- | PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) | To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php |
