sKunKbad Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I've got a shared hosting account, and it turns out that each directory needs its own php.ini. If I was in full control, then I could make a symbolic link in each sub-dir, and that way when a main php.ini in the www root was changed the sub-dir php.inis would also. So, am I stuck putting a php.ini in each sub-dir? Is there a way to have a symbolic link in php that mimics the behavior of the normal linux symbolic link? What are my options, if any?

sKunKbad Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 I found a solution that worked for me. I just put the following in my root .htaccess file: SETENV PHPRC /HOME/PUBLIC_HTML/php.ini I have a subdomain that is in a directory off of public_html, and it was showing errors after I did this, so I just put the same code in its directory, but changed the path so that it had its own php.ini, made the specific changes necessary, and all is well. I guess this only works if you or your host is running php in CGI mode, which mine is. I did however find solutions that would have worked regardless of what way php is running.
