note 76362 added to configuration.changes

To change the configuration for php running as cgi those handy module commands won't work.. The work-around is being able to tell php to start with a custom php.ini file.. configured the way you want. With multiple custom php.ini files ------------------------------------------- /site/ini/1/php.ini /site/ini/2/php.ini /site/ini/3/php.ini -- The trick is creating a wrapper script to set the location of the php.ini file that php will use. Then it exec's the php cgi. shell script /cgi-bin/phpini.cgi ------------------------------------------- #!/bin/sh export PHPRC=/site/ini/1 exec /cgi-bin/php5.cgi -- Now all you have to do is setup Apache to run php files through the wrapper script instead of just executing the php cgi. In your .htaccess or httpd.conf file ------------------------------------------- AddHandler php-cgi .php Action php-cgi /cgi-bin/phpini.cgi -- So to change the configuration of php you just need to change the PHPRC variable to point to a different directory containing your customized php.ini.. You could also create multiple shell wrapper scripts and create multiple Handler's+Actions in .htaccess.. in your .htaccess ------------------------------------------- AddHandler php-cgi1 .php1 Action php-cgi1 /cgi-bin/phpini-1.cgi AddHandler php-cgi2 .php2 Action php-cgi2 /cgi-bin/phpini-2.cgi AddHandler php-cgi3 .php3 Action php-cgi3 /cgi-bin/phpini-3.cgi -- The only caveat here is that it seems like you would have to rename the file extensions, but there are ways around that too -> http://www.askapache.com/php/custom-phpini-tips-and-tricks.html ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 62.75.162.71 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.changes.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/76362 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76362/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76362/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76362/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76362/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76362/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76362/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76362 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/76362 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
