[solved] - Required Install Settings not reflecting what PHP.INI reports

[mechatech]

I'm installing a fresh copy of CMSMS 1.6.6

When i reach the install (step 2) the requirement reports my timeout limit as 30 sec. My max post size as 8MB and Max upload as 2MB.

I then edited my PHP.INI file and changed timeout to 120sec, post size 24MB and max upload to 24MB.
Then i checked info.php and the report confirmed the changes that i made.

I restarted my browser, then re ran the install. At step 2, I got the same settings as before. 30sec 8MB and 2MB.

Is there something else I should be doing on my end to change these settings in CMSMS?
Maybe another way to test that my settings are being changed?

Thanks

Figured out my problem, the php.ini needed to be in every folder.
created a .htaccess file with SuPHP_ConfigPath /home/account/public_html/php.ini

Works now.

Copy php.in into both your home directory and the /admin directory (or the folder you have your admin set to if you have changed it from the default)
