? about PHP.ini

[DDad]

Has any one installed a PHP.ini? If so is there a thread started?

[Zachery]

what do you mean installed a php.ini ?

[Paul M]

Isn't it required by every php installation ?

Sounds like he wants to know how to edit it, or he wants to know where to find it so he can edit it?

Nope. php can run fine without php.ini

In linux it is located at
/etc/php.ini (generally) however this is nto always true

in windows its either in the php folder or in
%systemdir%/php.ini

Not that it runs insanely well, but it can get along without one just fine.

I was told it was PHP.ini
This is what it says with an image of letter and #'s that are warped and some have lines through it.

I think you mean the image GD library installed? Since that features uses GD functions to create an image on the fly.

You can change the setting in the vb admin cp:
vBulletin Options -> Server Settings and Optomization Options ->

GD Version
Version of GD installed on your server. You can find the version by searching for 'GD' on your phpinfo() output.

Either do what it says there to find out your GD version or ask your host/server admin
