Summary: Configuration File (php.ini) Path incorrect
Status: No Feedback
Type: Bug
Package: *General Issues
Operating System: win xp pro
PHP Version: 5.2.4
New Comment:
I have exactly the same problem that because of this bug, my PHP just
can not work with mysql and keep complainning "Call to undefined
function mysql_connect() ".
I've tried 5.2.13, 5.3.2 and both had problem. Until searched forum with
somebody mentioned to use "phpinfo" check where the php.ini located, I
eventually find this bug. With one line added in httpd.conf file
"PHPIniDir 'c:\php'", the problem is gone.
Can somebody help to fix this problem as this is not only annoying, I
am not able to get PHP work with mysql because of this.

Since this bug was suspended due to "no feedback", I thought I'd supply
the requested feedback and hope that someone would fix this annoyance.
The two places in my phpinfo output regarding php.ini are:
Configuration File (php.ini) Path C:\Windows
Loaded Configuration File D:\Apps\MyFolder\php-5.3.2\php.ini
Apparently my php.ini is being loaded from my php-5.3.2 folder, but
phpinfo erroneously reports php.ini's path as C:\Windows.

Hi. For me this problem was only occurring when php was executed via
apache. Executing php -i from the command line listed the mysql
extension whereas a phpinfo() request via the browser did not.
Try adding the following line to your apache httpd.conf file (to point
to the directory containing php.ini) eg.
PHPIniDir 'C:\php'
Adding this line changed phpinfo()'s reported 'Loaded Configuration
File' from (none) to C:\php\php.ini, and mysql started talking. However,
phpinfo() still reports c:\windows as the php.ini directory.
Cheers, Matt

I am quite confused with this whole thing on my mac (leopard).. i
thought my PHP was the perfect installation..;-).. till i realised that
my PHP.ini setting of upload_max_filesize was still 2 MB inspite of me
having changed it to 32 MB!!..
how do i get php to use the php.ini values and not the default.. I am
facing the same issue on my imac.. there's some loaded configuration
file which shows /private/etc while the Configuration File (php.ini)
Path is /etc
But they are I think symlinked.. but whatever I edit in the php.ini does
not reflect in the phpinfo()..
please help..

I've just run into this problem. Using win2k8 r2 x64. And php 5.2.5
I copied the php installation that is working on a win2k3 server to this
win2k8 box. I put the path to the ini file in both the system PATH
variable as well as creating a reg key in
local_machine/software/php5/iniFilePath = C:\php5
I still get (none) for the loaded config file. This is working fine on
the win2k3 machine though.

I had the same damn problem and was pulling my hair out for a week.
Please!!! Either instruct the users to move the php.ini file into the
C:\windows directory your installation instructions or fix the problem!
Please!!!
