Re: Installing PHP from source and no php.ini

[Aziz Saleh <azizsaleh@xxxxxxxxx>]

Does php info run (php -info | grep php.ini)? It should show the location of the file (if locate isn't finding it).

I have installed php-5.3 from source on a VM containing Ubuntu 14.04. The build commands are

./configure --enable-fpm --with-curl --with-pdo-mysql=/path/to/mysql --withgd --with-jpeg-dir --with-png-dir
make
make test
sudo make install

While make test fails on some tests, the output of make install is

You may want to add: /usr/local/lib/php to your php.ini include_path

Problem is that I don't see any php.ini in anywhere, e.g. /. What does the last sentence mean?

Actually /usr/local/lib/php is a directory.
