PHPTriad settings

Configuring it to use the SMTP server

[paladin]

Hi All,
I am having some problems getting PHP to act upon the changes I made in the php.ini file.

I have phpTriad installed on a Windows XP machine (don't shoot me for it).

I have been trying to play around with the PHP settings in the php.ini file. No matter what I do, I cannot seem to get it to accept and act upon the changes in the php.ini file.

It seems that phpTriad installed two versions of the php.ini file at C:\winnt & C:\apache\php

Specifically what I am trying to do is to use the IIS SMTP server.

Also tried to set the error logging directives, again it is not acting upon the changes I made in either of the php.ini files.

And yes, I restarted Apache between the changes.

Any ideas?
Thanks

That doesn't seem to work either. I changed the ini settings temporarily using ini_set().

The strange this is, under another system it IS working.

Why won't it accept the changes to the php.ini file?

I sent you a mail including the address of a site I co-own
and where I published a tutorial on using Triad

Thanks all for your help, I finally got it to work and accept the changes in the php.ini file.

henry0,
Your article pointed me in the right direction. I did not need to do all of the instructions there.

To get it to work all I had to do was copy the php.ini file from c:\winnt to c:\windows, and believe it or not it worked!

I am assuming that it was a small mistake in the version of phpTriad because I am using XP, where it installed it in the winnt folder instead of the windows folder.

Windows magic at its "best".

BTW - does anybody know how I can configure it to say where is the php.ini file? I want to move it to the php folder instead of the windows folder.

Thanks
