Hello,
I made some setting changes in my php.ini but they did not take affect even after a reboot. I then realized these settings are being overriden by CLI SAPI. I searched the web for how to dissable this. I found many posts that said to run the ./configure --dissable cli. However, I cannot find the configure command or file anywhere in SuSE 11.2. The txt below is a section of my php.ini I’m trying to configure. However, as you can see the description text says its being overriden by CLI SAPI. I checked yast breifly but could not find anything either. I’m a linux newbee so detailed steps would be great :|. Please help. Thx

I can not answer your question, but I have some guesses here.
The ./configure --dissable cli is a statement belonging to the sequence of building the product yourself from source. This also means that, onece the product is build, this most probably is “hard-coded” (as you also show above) and not configurable from a run time configuration file.
Thus I am afraid that getting the source (a tarball) from somewhere and building yourself is the only option.
openSUSE is linux, php5 is php5, so settings things in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini should work. Sure it’s not overruled by one of the other settings? If you want to check, simply rename the 2 instances of php.ini:
/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
/etc/php5/cli/php.ini
I don’t have much experience on the technical part of php you’re referring to, yet have done quite some manual changes to php.ini, as a habit I restart apache2.

When you say you have the above from the PHP manual, then I do not quite understand who you want to blame for it. It is hard-coded by the PHP people. And web-sites told you that you can remove the whole functionality by building the product with* ./configure --dissable cli*. That is clear enough imho.
It is not openSUSE, it is not Linux (the kernel) it is the PHP programmers who made it like that. When you want it different, build for yourself and be glad that it can be done with just one parameter. The alternative would have been to change the source itself. Which is the ultimate goal of Open Source: when you are not satisfied how it is, you can have the source and change to your taste.
Hey Knurpt,
Thanks for the clarification. I was able to modify the php.ini at /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and the changes took affectrotfl!I’m a linux newbee so I didn’t realize there were different php.ini files. Thanks much!
