Description:
------------
I cannot reproduce the code here or on a seperate link.  The issue is simple but I am having trouble location posts about it elsewhere.  I setup apache 2_2x etc or w/e on my machine with the php as I selected above.  When I check phpinfo() in a document, it loads just fine, php SHOWS as running & general php scripts work.  However the settings shown do NOT reflect any changes I tried making in my own php.ini file located in C:/windows directory.  I don't know how this works exactly, but after much frustration I still can't seem to get it functioning by my own settings.

Settings I adjusted:
max_execution_time, defaults to 30 I set it to 300, no change.
Added mysql, it doesn't show up... anywhere!
extention directory, it shows C:/php5, no such folder even exists!  I have it in c:/php...

Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.

I forgot to mention, I DID restart the apache server as well as my entire machine, multiple times.  This has had no effect on the situation.

In phpinfo() output there is a section where PHP tries to look for the ini file and exactly what file it DID use. This is not any bug.

Sorry to cause a ruckus, the problem is solved.  Apparently I hadn't edited the directories in apache properly to find the php.ini file.  It was loading defaults I guess, and I had no clue it had a default built it so I was a bit confused as to why it was still running.

User error -> bogus.
