 |
|
Hello all,
I have a problem with a mysterious configuration file that i have no knowledge of at all.
It began when I noticed that the changes I made to smtp and smtp_port weren't being applied. I changed these settings multiple times to different values but the warning messages kept returning the value of localhost and port 25.
When I checked phpinfo, it said the path for the configuration file is the systemroot. But this dir holds no php related file whatsoever.
The last test I did was to remove the entire php dir, and only put php5apache2.dll & php5ts.dll in the systemroot, after which i restarted the apache server.
Suprisingly, everything still worked like before.
Additional info:
The win version is XP Proffesional.
I reïnstalled xp a few days ago, and I didn't have this problem before that.
Instead of copying some php & apache files to the windir, I append their locations to the environment path.
The php version is 5.1.6
The Apache Version is 2.2.3.0
I hope you guys can make something of this, thx in advance  |

in your httpd.conf you can set where apache should search for the ini file
e.g.
or place your php.ini in C:\Windows |

The value was set to L:\php5. I also had this path appended to the environment path. But this didn't seem to have any effect.
I also want to mention that I performed several desktop searches with the options to search hidden files & folders and show system folders. The searches only turned up one php.ini, located in L:\php5. |
