ID: 10598 Updated by: brianlmoon Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Open Bug Type: *Install and Config PHP Version: 4.0.5 Assigned To: Comments: While I do agree with you that this is a pain, there is a possible solution assuming that you can set environment variables on your machine. Set PHPRC to the path where the php.ini file is. Then PHP will look there instead. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-05-02 03:17:12] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've been running PHP with this: http://www.php.net/do_download.php?download_file=php405-installer.exe&source_site=www.php.net Basically, I have a problem with the placement of your php.ini. I would have thought, hoped it would run from the php directory as well as the windows directory. This is standard Windows protocol. A windows *.exe "normally" prioritises looking in the app directory and then in the windows directory for the location of *.ini files. Your Msvcrt.dll was installed in my network drive: t:php and works like a charm; so should the php.ini!. My at-work installation of windows is NT Server based and I don't have permissions to access D:ntdir where NT was installed. I'm running a http microweb out of a separate directory and hoped to make use of PHP at work. I can't because I can't put the php in the windows directory. It won't work in my network drive: t:phpphp.ini While my case may or may not be non-standard, your port to windows lack in basic *.ini protocol. It "should" look in the app directory to see if the ini exists there too! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email!
