All I can think of is that you have more than one version of
PHP installed, and it's looking in a non-standard place for
the php.ini - possibly under /usr/php-version or
/usr/local/php-version.
Try a file search on your system, and see how many php.ini
files you can find there.
Eg.
[root@karsites ~]# locate php.ini
/downloads/php-src/5.2.1/php-5.2.1/php.ini-dist
