ID: 21783 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Any PHP Version: 4.3.0 New Comment:
On a related note, I heard rumors that as of 4.3.0 ini files such as php-cli.ini and php-cgi.ini are looked for first, is this true? If not found, php.ini is looked for. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-20 20:52:26] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Point taken :) A cross reference to the info about the location of php.ini file (/manual/en/configuration.php#configuration.file) should be inserted on features.commandline page. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-20 20:46:58] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank you for that link. None the less, people reading the features.commandline.php won't necessarily read the configuration.php page. Gee, take me for example! :) I spent a significant amount of time trying to figure out what was going on. Checked the command line page in the manual, all of the user comments, the newsgroup archives and the bug database. All of which turned up nothing, hence my bug report. So, a simple mention of the situation and a cross reference link to configuration.php would be helpful. Heck, I'm fairly PHP literate and a good sleuth, but wound up using your time anyway. This minor documentation tweak will save everyone grief in the long run. Of course, I could add a user comment, but that doesn't have the same impact. Thanks for your consideration, --Dan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-20 19:51:29] [EMAIL PROTECTED] PHPRC environmental variable (and other ways of finding it) are documented at: http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php#configuration.file ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
