[SOLVED] ini_set not working

[next]

I'm trying to add path to Zend Framework through ini_set but it's not working.

Code:

	$current_includes = ini_get('include_path');
$zend_path = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/Zend';

$incs = explode(';', $current_includes);

if(!in_array($zend_path, $incs)) {
	if(ini_set('include_path', ';' . $incs . $zend_path))
		echo 'path to Zend successfully added to configuration file, restart the server to apply changes.';
	else
		echo 'unable to write to ini file';
}
else
	echo 'Zend already exists';

When i run this code, i do get a success message, but ini remains the same. What am i doing wrong here?

try running a phpinfo file after to see if it is changed

ini_set() only sets the config for the scripts execution.. it changes it back after the script completes.

Oh, so doesn't actually write to file?

Nope.

You might consider using php_flag in a .htaccess file or actually changing the value manually in the .ini file (though I assume that isn't an option since you are trying to implement it in a script)

Yeah, i'm forcing myself to write portable code, so manually adding values is not really an option.

Thanks for the help!
