Problem with php.ini

I'm having a problem with php-cli and php_mod reading my php.ini file. I've compiled php from source, during which process I set "--with-config-file=/etc". Once the compile completed, I then copied php.ini-recommened to /etc/php.ini. After restarting Apache, I run phpinfo() and "Configuration File Path" is showing only "/etc", which means it's not find /etc/php.ini. So then I tried the cli and ran phpinfo() from it and same thing. If I run it as "php -c /etc/php.ini", it can find/read it. For what it's worth, this is happening on a Gentoo system, but this shouldn't make too much of a difference since I've compiled PHP from source (v5.0.4), the same source I've used on a couple of other (non-Gentoo) machines. Just in case, here's the configure command I used: './configure' '--with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs2' '--disable-cgi' '--with-config-file-path=/etc' '--with-openssl' '--with-zlib' '-enable-bcmath' '--with-bz2' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-dba' '--with-db4' '--with-inifile' '--with-flatfile' '--enable-dio' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-gmp' '--with-unixODBC' '--with-pgsql' '--with-readline' '--enable-soap' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-wddx' '--with-xsl' '--with-pear' Any ideas? Thanks, Tim
