Re: php.ini

thanks for the replies, but... > If there is a php.ini file in the php root directory, then that gets used. Otherwise, the php.ini file in C:\Windows (iirc). If the Actually it seems like the Zend IDE installed another apache server. But the situation is more confusing. When I start my standard apache server (dbl-click the binary itself to make sure no windows services are redirecting), it is not looking for a php.ini in the same folder as the binary. It reads in C:/dev/Zend/etc/php.ini I think I tracked down the issue to setting which httpd.conf apache looks for. the directory setup is: apache/ /conf/httpd.conf but this file seems to not be getting used, rather it is using the other apache install... 1 apache binary 2 looks for an httpd.conf (search order?) 3 which has a line where to load a php.dll 4 php.ini is looked for next to the php.dll 5 php.ini says where to find other php extensions etc. so somewhere tween 1 and 2 there is a redirect i cannot track down. i guess its not really a PHP issue, more an apache/zend IDE installer thing but appreciate any tips... /dc > >> On my dev box, I installed the zend editor.

Zend installs its own php binaries (unless you do a custom setup).
