Can someone bring me some help ? The manual at http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php#configuration.file implies that PHPRC, and starting PHP with the -c switch, is only for the CLI or CGI versions. I am guessing but I suspect you have PHP as an Apache DSO. You would need to recompile PHP to change the location of php.ini. I would ask yourself if you really _need_ php.ini somewhere other than in /etc. HTH Chris
