PHP5 under lighttpd with fcgi

I installed everything and it works fine but editing php.ini has no effect on anything!
'whereis php' gives 'php: /usr/local/bin/php /usr/local/lib/php /usr/local/lib/php.ini'

Are you sure that php.ini is not for cli? For example, if you have installed both cli and cgi php, you have a different php.ini for each.

I removed PHP4 before compiling and installing PHP5 then 'cp /root/downloads/php-5.2.1/php.ini-dist /usr/local/lib/php.ini' and edited php.ini with no effect! I found the old /etc/php.ini and deleted it but no effect either
php -v gives

To find what php.ini you’re actually using, try the phpinfo() function.

I did it's 'Configuration File (php.ini) Path /usr/local/lib'
I'm on CentOS 4.4

got it sorry!
I was adding some options from the example
fastcgi.server = ( ".php" => ((
"bin-path" => "/usr/local/bin/php -c /usr/local/lib/php.ini",
"socket" => "/tmp/php.socket",
"max-procs" => 2,
"bin-environment" => (
"PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN" => "16",
"PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS" => "10000"
),
"bin-copy-environment" => (
"PATH", "SHELL", "USER"
),
"broken-scriptfilename" => "enable"
)))
I removed the extras and it worked fine
fastcgi.server = ( ".php" => (( "bin-path" => "/usr/local/bin/php",
"socket" => "/tmp/php.socket" )))
