Where is the PHP.ini file ?

[DA]

Hi all ,

Probably a stupid question , but as the tite says , where is this elusive php.ini file to be found ?

I want to make some suggested changes in it . We are hosted with IX Webhosting on a Linux setup .

Many thanks

When you only have "normally" webhosting without server access, you can't found php.ini  . The place for php.ini on server is depending from the used linux distribution.

You can only try to overwrite some defaults with an entry in .htaccess ...

Can I change these recomended settings in th htaccess file ? , and how do I do it / ( smile )

Checking PHP memory limit (min 8M, recommend 16M)......................You have "8M"
Could not retrieve a value.... passing anyways

Checking max execution time (min 30s, recommend 45s),,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,You have "30"

Checking max upload file size (min 2M)........................You have "2M"

Many thanks for your help

Create a file named .htaccess and put it in the root of CMSms.

Checking PHP memory limit (min 8M, recommend 16M)......................You have "8M"

Write this inside .htaccess

Code: Select all

php_value memory_limit 16M 

Checking max execution time (min 30s, recommend 45s),,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,You have "30"

The same here

Code: Select all

php_value max_execution_time 60

Checking max upload file size (min 2M)........................You have "2M"

And once again

Code: Select all

php_value upload_max_filesize 10M

But it will only work if your webhost has "AllowOverride On" in their httpd config.
