4.2.2 upgrade with time errors and you have no access to php.ino what worked for me

If the new php.ini worked in your /includes folder, that is fantastic as that file will not be overwritten in any vb updates and thus keep the "fix" permanently.

Great stuff!

The vBulletin software package doesn't actually include a config.php in it for this very reason. They don't want it to overwrite your existing file. The download only contains a config.php.new file which won't overwrite your existing configuration.
