El Capitan上的PHP.ini位置

Question

Simple question: where is the correct PHP.INI location in Mac OSX El Capitan?

I tried to update the one in /etc folder, but nothing changed.

Answer 1

The default location on OSX El Capitan and macOS Sierra is /etc/php.ini

But if that file doesn't exist, php will use /etc/php.ini.default . Don't forget to create a copy if you want to make changes:

$ sudo cp /etc/php.ini.default /etc/php.ini   

Also, php will scan /Library/Server/Web/Config/php dir for additional .ini files

Restart Apache if you made any changes:

$ sudo apachectl -k restart  

Note: if you install PHP7, this location will change to /usr/local/etc/php/7.0/php.ini

Answer 2

i know three ways:

1. php -i | grep php.ini
2. php --ini
3. create php file with following line: <?php phpinfo(); and open the file in the browser

Answer 3

Simple solution

1. create php info file in your web folder

    <?php // Show all information, defaults to INFO_ALL phpinfo(); ?> 

2. open the file in browser

3. look for

INFO_GENERAL 1 The configuration line, php.ini location, build date, Web Server, System and more.

Taken from php manual

Another option is to use

<? php_ini_loaded_file(); ?>

Answer 4

奇怪的是，phpinfo（）不显示文件位置，但这里是： /etc/php.ini.default
