If you make changes to your PHP.ini file, consider the following. (I'm running IIS5 on W2K server. I don't know about 2K3) PHP will not "take" the changes until the webserver is restarted, and that doesn't mean through the MMC. Usually folks just reboot. But you can also use the following commands, for a much faster "turnaround". At a command line prompt, type: iisreset /stop and that will stop the webserver service. Then type: net start w3svc and that will start the webserver service again. MUCH faster than a reboot, and you can check your changes faster as a result with the old: <?php> phpinfo(); ?> in your page somewhere. I wish I could remember where I read this tip; it isn't anything I came up with... --was-- If you make changes to your PHP.ini file, consider the following. (I'm running IIS5 on W2K server.
