As the installation txt suggests, I have left my php.ini file inside
the c:\php directory... but running phpinfo() shows that my php.ini
file is in c:\windows as shown below.

Configuration File (php.ini path) - C:\WINDOWS

Well there is no php.ini file in my windows directory, so I'm not sure
where it's getting it's configuration settings from... unless I suppose
they're built into the executable somewhere if no php.ini file is
found. My questions is - why php is not locating my php.ini file that
is located in the c:\php directory? I'd rather not move it to the
windows directory so I can keep everything nice and tidy like the
installation file suggests.

BTW - This is a brand new laptop I'm installing PHP on so there is (I
just double checked) no PHP.ini file in the c:\windows directory. The
path is set to include c:\php... and opening a DOS prompt and typing
"php" is a recognizable command regardless of my current directory.
This is the 2nd machine I have had this same problem with. I'm still
confused...

Any thoughts?

thanks
