Why did moving it break things is I think what first needs to be learned.

Why was ini put in a php5 directory? As far as I know php wants to look in some standard locations. /etc is one if them so that would translate to /opt/local/etc/php.ini.

Of cource there are a few other locations but I believe etc is pretty normal. I think it should have just kep working. Any idea why it did not work for you? What did you have to change to get it to work?

You can also run 'port contents portname' to see where all the files registered to that port are.

Sorry about the problem, but I'm not sure how it happened. As far as I can tell, php5 does not touch your php.ini, and never has. It only installs sample files named php.ini-dist and php.ini- recommended and prints a message advising you to copy one of these to the proper location.

I think the location of php.ini may have been moved to etc/php5 with php5 @5.2.10. I was paying that much attention when I upgraded.


ahhh, the mystery is solved.

the upgrade to php5 @5.2.10 moved the php.ini file to /opt/local/etc/ php5/php.ini
the deactivate didn't touch anything
the activate php5 @5.2.6 didn't do anything to php.ini either, since there now is no php.ini in /opt/local/etc

hmmm, maybe the "right" thing for php5 @5.2.10 to do is copy the php.ini file as opposed to moving it?

my brain hurts less now.
