Writing a PHP.INI

[FlyingMonkey]

I am attempting to write a php.ini to control the memory allocation for a particular set of scripts. supposedly, you can place a php.ini (in the folder and it'll control it locally, just for those files). But i have no clue how to do so. i tried a few searches online, but i was hoping someone could verify that the following is legitimate for a php.ini from start to finish.

 

;attempting to set memory for just a particular script
max_input_time = 9000
memory_limit = 128M
post_max_size = 8M

 

Thanks.

Did you ensure that the memory limit directive was included at runtime? You'd see this as --enable-memory-limit in the configure line if you look at the Admin > Tools > Server Info page.

 

Here's a link on setting up configuration files:

Also note that if PHP is not running on Apache as CGI, then changes you make to a php.ini file would not take effect until Apache is restarted.

 

You can modify some directives in an .htaccess file, which would take immediate effect (provided your host has AllowOverrides on)

thanks! yup, it's apache as cgi and it has the

--enable-memory-limit Configure Command.
