Description:
------------
http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.apache1.php
states

"
# specify the directory where php.ini is
SetEnv PHPRC C:/php
"

My httpd.conf has
SetEnv PHPRC "C:/program files/php"
in it and, after reboot, phpinfo () gives:

Configuration File (php.ini) Path  C:\WINDOWS
but
PHPRC  C:/program files/php
is shown (which is correct).

php.ini does exist at C:/program files/php/php.ini

Using c:/progra~1/php with or without a trailing slash does not change the situation.

PHP5.0.1 is otherwise working fine.

I have same problem in same configuration, and can add that it doesn't see php.ini file in apache directory. Only "C:/windows" (default), or path set in registry key "HKLM\Software\PHP\IniFilePath" works for me.

Same here... It kept trying to set the directory to c:\php5 for me even though I specified d:\php...

Php.ini is not read where I tell Apache with setenv PHPRC..
in httpd.conf

I put it in c:\WINNT and php.ini is read and it's ok

Thanks to people who wrote about this before me!
Ciao

PHP checks the real environment, not the Apache environment for PHPRC.  Changing this to a documentation problem.

Result of a test under Windows XP:

Apache 2.0.50 - PHP 5: SetEnv PHPRC works
Apache 1.3.27 - PHP 5: SetEnv PHPRC works
Apache 1.3.27 - PHP 4: SetEnv PHPRC doesn't work
Apache 2.0.50 - PHP 4: SetEnv PHPRC doesn't work

Strange, it's different from what other people say.

Tried 5.0.2 + Apache 1.3.27 (instead of 5.0.1) 

1. putting php.ini into apache dir started working
2. adding PHPRC into environment works (Rasmus was right)

With Apache/1.3.31 (Win32) PHP/5.0.2 setting PHPRC did not work. Setting the system enviroment variable did work.

I'm not sure what you did vrana, but I think if it doesn't work in all cases it's best to pretend it doesn't exist!

I've changed the documentation to reflect these new steps.

Thanks for the bug report and help making our documentation better.
