A compile from source will _not_ install php.ini. Check the root directory of your source where you should find two sample ini files. named something like php.ini.dist and php.ini.opt. Choose one, edit it to your needs and put it where php expects it to be. As far as the location of the ini file, see the Install instructions for *nix.
