How to save modified php.ini file settings

[robmorin]

Right ok i just want to make sure that i should be setting the PHPRC to the php5 dir rather than leave it at php4 dir...
good to know i have the option of either modifying the apache conf or the php4-fcgi-starter file..

thanks dude!

I believe the directory to look for the php.ini file is defined in the phpX-fcgi-starter with the "PHPRC" variable. If you just rename a copy of the php4-fcgi-starter, it won't work. You need to modify this file to ponit to the correct binary as well as the correct PHPRC directory.

You'll also need to modify your vhosts file for apache, to switch it from using the php4-fcgi-starter to php5-fcgi-starter.

I'm sure there is a way to change something in the database, and then set the domain to change, and have the vhosts and starter scripts updated for you, but then you'd blow out any changes you've made...
