Editing php settings seems impossible

[tininho]

Hi, I have tried everything I can imagine to change the php settings, I mainly want to raise the upload_max_filesize setting to restore my sql back up through phpmyadmin (filesize is bigger than 2M which is the current limit).

my phpinfo shows the following:
Configuration File (php.ini) Path /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib

There is no php.ini in that folder or in any subfolders.

I made a find /usr/local/lsws/ -name 'php.ini' -run and edited all of the php.ini files found. Restarted the server and got absolutely no where (size limit is still 2M).

Can you please point me to a right direction here?

if no php.ini under /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib, default php settings are used no matter which php.ini you change. you should copy the modified php.ini to /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib and restart lsws to make the change effective.

I have problems with the php configuration again, I have edited the /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php.ini (also confirmed the path from phpinfo.php) as following (part):

post_max_size = 100M
max_execution_time = 180
max_input_time = 120
upload_max_filesize = 100M

I restarted and LSWS and afterwards the whole server, I still get this on the phpinfo and PhpMyAdmin confirm the upload limit:

FROM PHPINFO:

upload_max_filesize	2M	2M
upload_tmp_dir	no value	no value

How this happens, why the attribute is not changing?

[NiteWave]

check if it's overridden in .htaccess
for example,

php_value upload_max_filesize 2M

[tininho]

I have disabled the ability to change the setting via .htaccess. The php settings remain unchanged, very strange.

I tried to rebuild php, but now I get the following error:

fail to save current configuration.

Fail to generate build script, please try to manually fix the error first.
Failed to create manual install script: /usr/local/lsws/phpbuild/buildphp_manual_run.sh

What you think is causing this?

[webizen]

check the ownship/permission of /usr/local/lsws/phpbuild and /usr/local/lsws/phpbuild/buildphp_manual_run.sh. they should be owned by lsadm.

thanks, that helped for php reinstallation. the first problem remains, I cannot get the litespeed to read the custom php.ini file in /usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/lib/php.ini.

None of the settings change, most importantly the upload limit. Bizarre.. Any ideas?

could some other ownership be wrongly set (also strange, but if it helps..).

do following to locate the php.ini in use. If you have not compiled php from admin console, it is likely you use something else.

/usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp5 -i | grep "Configuration File"

[tininho]

Here is part of the response (seems that all is not right):

PHP is compiled with Litespeed admin panel, php header and apc checked.

pls fix the syntax error in php.ini and comment out 'extension=apc.so' first and see any difference.
