PHP Configration

[PATRICIAF5]

Hi,

How can I find my PHP configuration (php.ini) file? The exact location of the file.

Hi,

In Linux servers you a can find them directly by running command :

php -i | grep php.ini

In windows PHP configuration file can be present in many places. If the 'php' (or 'php.exe' in Windows) binary is not in your PATH, you will have to navigate to the directory where it resides.

Hi,

You can run the PHP binary with the '-i' argument and extract the php.ini location using 'grep' (or 'find' in Windows).

cd C:\PHP
php.exe -i | find php.ini

The commands above will show the location of the PHP configuration file that PHP installation is currently using on server.

The path where PHP looks for its php.ini file is built into PHP on compile time. To find out that path, use a PHP script that does a phpinfo() call. This will display a e table of all of PHP's configuration variables. The path to php.ini can be found in the first part of that table, near the start of the page.

Geeklog ships with a phpinfo script in /path/to/geeklog/admin/install/info.php. Or you can simply create a new file (name it "phpinfo.php", for example) that contains the single line

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Upload that file anywhere on your website and call it up in your browser.
