Description:
------------
Bug #26735 described this problem but was closed as 'bogus' when it is really a valid feature request (bug) which needs to be addressed. Please do not 'bogusify' this request since it could have saved me a lot of time if not closed previously.

Both the configure option ('--with-config-file-path') and the phpinfo() output ('Configuration File (php.ini) Path 	/usr/local/php5/lib/php5.ini') imply that this option refers to a 'file' when in fact it refers only to a directory - the name of the config file can ONLY be 'php.ini'. This fact is completely hidden from the user.

This could be corrected by renaming option to:
'--with-config-file-dir'
And changing phpinfo() output to:
'Configuration File (php.ini) Directory'

Oddly, php tries to read /usr/local/php5/lib/php5.ini/php.ini instead of the file reported by phpinfo(): /usr/local/php5/lib/php5.ini

strace -eopen php -r '' 2>&1 | grep ini
...
open("/usr/local/php5/lib/php5.ini/php.ini", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOTDIR (Not a directory)


Bug #26735 said the following:

 ... the documentation (specifically ./configure --help) is unclear, as well phpinfo() is unclear as it labels the value supplied with --with-config-file-path as Configuration File (php.ini) Path, and typically Path of a file would include the filename. Request that the flag be renamed --with-config-file-dir and the corrosponding phpinfo() label be changed as well... i suspect that labels is trivial compared to making the programs obey the labels.


Reproduce code:
---------------
./configure \
....
--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/php5/lib/php5.ini;

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Expected result:
----------------
Configuration File (php.ini) Path 	/usr/local/php5/lib/
...


Actual result:
--------------
Configuration File (php.ini) Path 	/usr/local/php5/lib/php5.ini
...

php5.ini file is NOT read
