[Xerte] Re: Override server php.ini?

[Dave Burnett]

# providers are evil# :-)
I fiddled with .htaccess and it seems to have overridden the maxuploadsize setting.

    Most providers (at least here in the Netherlands) have a way to
    modify (parts of) php.ini for your particular virtual host, i.e. the
    PHPINIDir points to somewhere you've access to.

    

    So, ask your provider, and be pleasantly surprised... ;-)

        Thanks David.
        Coincidentally that was what I was looking at:
        http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.file.php
        

        
        

        
        At howtoforge they assume you have access to vhost to
          change the ini path directive.
        "Then open the vhost configuration for
            the www.example.com web site and add a PHPINIDir line to it:"
        

        
        If I had that I'd just change the server php.ini itself.

            Sometimes you can use a .htaccess file to specify settings -
            see http://php.net/manual/en/configuration.changes.php
            

            
            Alternatively, sometimes you can have a 'local' php.ini
              file  - but you'd need to have some sort of server access
              :

                      If the hosting service won't let
                        you mess with /usr/local/lib/php.ini
                        

                        
                        where and what do you do to override it
                          with one of your own?
                        The archives have hints but nothing
                          definitive.
