Two instances of php.ini file...

Postby Donna5dcp » 12. September 2006 12:46

Installed xampp-win32-1.5 3a-installer. I have TWO php.ini files. Which one is used?

One resides in 'C:/Program Files/xampp/apache/bin'
One in 'C:/Program Files/xampp/php'
And another in 'C:/Program Files/xampp/php/php4'

Huh? This is from a default install of Xampp


I have to configure my php.ini file to work with windows, which file?


BTW
Also noticed FOUR instances of the libmysql.dll:
One is in 'C:/Program Files/xampp/apache/bin'
One is in 'C:/Program Files/xampp/mysql/bin'
One is in 'C:/Program Files/xampp/php'
and finally One is in 'C:/Program Files/xampp/php/php4'
TIA

Do they give you any problems having 4 copies of the same file?

Check your Windows directories and all your program file directories and post back all the duplicated files you find. I don't know if there would be enough space on the forums. ;)

Im going to make sure that the .dll file is in the windows system 32 directory. Cant see any problems there. Although - why on earth does xampp load so many different files in different locations. They're the same file.
