Where is php.ini?
 

I just installed mandrake 9.1 and I had it install apache with php. Now i need to config my php.ini file and i can't find it. Does anyone know where it's at?

I've tried doing a search but my search locks up and can't find anything.

if i run phpinfo() it says it should be in /etc but i can't seem to find it.

find / -name "*php.ini*"

should return any locations with this file in it.

locate php.ini


Location: /etc/php.ini

I've looked in /etc and i can't find php.ini its not in there.

if i do find / -name "*php.ini*" it doesn't return anything.

i had mandrake install apache and php for me, is that why i can't find it? is this file stored under another name?

thanks

root]# find / -name "*php.ini*"
/etc/php.ini

try this /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini (or what ever version you are using)
on the second thought check for "Loaded Configuration File" in phpinfo()

Look at the dates on the posts before yours. Nearly 9 years old.

I'm a noob to Linux and running apache2/php5/MySQL on it. I'm running Linux Mint 13. Anyway, someone above mentioned that the first posts were in 2003! I must say, thank you LinuxQuestions.Org for not deleting this post because even though today is 01Sep2012-Saturday, I still found the information posted from 9 years ago highly useful! Thank you! Now, with reference to installing the PECL whachamacallit's, I found the php.ini file by using: locate php.ini, and then I used nano /path/to/php.ini to edit it.
