Bug #39799 Windows installer does not set PHPIniDir properly
Submitted: 2006-12-11 15:53 UTC Modified: 2008-08-22 17:37 UTC
From: php at ahlenstorf dot ch Assigned: jmertic (profile)
Status: Closed Package: Windows Installer
PHP Version: 5.2.0 OS: Windows XP SP2
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
The Windows Installer of PHP 5.2.0 fails to properly set the PHPIniDir directive in Apache 2.2.3. Result: PHP does not use the php.ini configured by the Windows Installer residing in C:\Programme\PHP (or whatever your install dir of PHP is). Instead it looks for a php.ini in C:\Windows.

The cause of the problem is the usage of single backslashes in the path:

PHPIniDir "C:\Programme\PHP\"

Using double backslashes like

PHPIniDir "C:\\Programme\\PHP\\"

or forward slashes like

PHPIniDir "C:/Programme/PHP/"

will fix the problem.
