PHPRC environmental variable (and other ways of finding it) are documented at: http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php#configuration.file Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-20 19:44:22] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Okay. Then, can you please change this into a documentation bug? The features.commandline.php pages should really explain this. For the clarity of other people reading this, the simple, long-term solution is creating an environment variable named PHPRC and setting it to the path of where your php.ini file resides. For example, "c:\progra~1\php" Thanks, --Dan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-20 19:05:54] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is how cli is designed to work (not to look for php.ini in the current working directory) and it won't change. You can achieve the desired behaviour by issuing: set PHPRC=. on the command line, or setting this environmental variable elsewhere in the system. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-20 17:29:50] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi: Please pardon the initial background if it's irrelevant, but I figured it may come into play somehow... Been using PHP for years, just fine. It's installed in f:\progra~1\php. That dir is in my Path, so I keep the php.ini and various dll's there to make upgrading easy. Installed latest version, 4.3.0, by moving old version to backup directory and unzipping binaries into f:\progra~1\php. Edited php.ini to my tastes. After running into problems with CLI not finding my php.ini file, I ran some tests. The test script contains: echo 'include_path... ' . ini_get('include_path') . "\n"; echo 'cfg_file_path... ' . get_cfg_var('cfg_file_path') . "\n"; Now I open up command line window and execute: > cd progra~1\php > php ./script Has the right output: include_path... .;f:\progra~1\pear cfg_file_path... F:\PROGRA~1\php\php.ini But, running the CLI does not: > cli\php ./script include_path... .;c:\php4\pear cfg_file_path... If I copy php.ini to the cli directory, the expected results are obtained. One assumes the CLI version would be smart enough to look up one directory level or in the Path for the php.ini. Of course, I can specify the config file via the -c flag, but that's awkward for general use and is counter-intuitive. I hope the behavior of the CLI executable will be changed accordingly, please. Thanks, --Dan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21783&edit=1
