So, the problem lie with the file path in Aha! Then you *missed* the one where he said: Check phpinfo() and see where phpinfo() thinks your php.ini file lives. 1. Surf to your phpinfo page. 2. Do a "Find..." in your browser for "php.ini" 3. Note the path where php.ini is supposed to be, as it was given to ./configure + 4. Put your php.ini file *THERE* 5. Remove all other php.ini files ++ 6. Sym-link all the other places php.ini used to be to that php.ini file. 7. Stop Apache. 8. Verify Apache stopped with "ps aux | grep http" 9. Start Apache. + If no path was given, the default is /usr/local/lib If your ISP/RedHat/Mandrake/whatever auto-installer chose some odd-ball path, well, yell at them, not us. ++ If there is no php.ini file at all in the path PHP expects it, PHP uses the defaults that would be there if you had put the default php.ini there like you were supposed to. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

The problem is the same on old AIX (as far as I can remember). Distributions install Apache as httpd and NOT as /usr/local/apache. So you end up having multiple configuration files for everything. Instead of upgrading, try eliminating the old installations first, then install as fresh from the tarball. Works for me. Remember checking httpd.conf and php.ini. Just a plain find / will make sure that you have no "ghosts" left around.

Re: [PHP] ./configure with register_globals turned on?
And the php.ini file you are changing is the one listed in your phpinfo() output? Looks to me like your php.ini file is in the wrong place.

Re: [PHP] ./configure with register_globals turned on?
I tried following all of your suggestion and so far, still the same. I tried changing other feature in the php.ini and check the phpinfo and found that they haven't changed either. So, the problem lie with the file path in finding the php.ini file. I only have one php.ini file. The other are in the php source code. Oh well, I'm going to let it go and move on!

Re: [PHP] ./configure with register_globals turned on?
Hi Scott, I've come to this post a little late, but I had exactly the same problem. No matter what I set php.ini, phpinfo() would not show changes. If I recall correctly, the problem sort of 'disappeared' by itself. I finally resolved it by rebooting immediately after setting the new php.ini (this was on Linux-Mandrake 8.2). Further, if I recall, (and this was three months ago) I think I re-installed PHP, but it made no difference. Make sure Apache is 'off' before you attempt to change php.ini. Also, in my config, there was another php.ini hidden in /etc/httpd -- do a 'locate' to see if you have multiple copies! I had a lot quirky things happen while trying to configure PHP 4.1.1. and a few with 4.1.2. For some odd reason, after a few attempts it does work. Try again, would be my advice. It'll work sooner or later :> You might want to run a test to see if globals are really 'on' or 'off' -- I really don't trust the phpinfo() output!

Re: [PHP] ./configure with register_globals turned on?
So putting the line: register_globals = on In your php.ini file (path to it specified in your phpinfo() output) didn't work? Check the following: 1. Are you sure there isn't a second "register_globals = off" entry somewhere in that file? 2. Does the web server have read access to the directory and the php.ini file itself? 3. Can you change other things and see the change in your phpinfo() output? This really does work. -Rasmus On Fri, 5 Jul 2002, Scott Fletcher wrote: > I give up! It still won't turned on!

Re: [PHP] ./configure with register_globals turned on?
I give up! It still won't turned on! I tried stopping and restarting Apache, rebooting the machine, checked phpinfo to see the php.ini file path is, etc. At least, my boss understand. I'm going to stick to upgrading the website to go without register global.
