Hi, Fedora Core 3, PHP 5.03, MySQL 4.17, Apache 2.0.52 Recent PHP installation. I created a phpinfo() page. When I display it in my browser, it says:
Configuration File (php.ini) Path        /etc
Yet when I log on to my server and look for it in /etc, it is not there. How can I find it???

You don't have a php.ini file and PHP is using the defaults. If there was a php.ini file, it would be listed in the path, i.e. "/etc/php.ini" instead of just "/etc". Sample php.ini files are included with the source as php.ini-recommended and php.ini-dist (or file names that are close to that). Edit and rename to php.ini and place it in the path above (where PHP is expecting to find the file, /etc). -- ---John Holmes...
