I did indeed. I restarted the server and php stopped working. So I
uninstalled php, reinstalled but put the installation in C:/PHP instead
of C:\Program Files\PHP, put the php.ini file in C:\windows, restarted
the server. Now when I do a phpinfo() it is reading the file kind of.
phpinfo() shows that it is finding the file. It shows the proper
upload_tmp_dir. I can change some things like upload_max_filesize in the
php.ini file that get picked up after restarting the server. However,
some things are not getting picked up like extension_dir is not getting
changed from the php.ini

One weird thing happened on the php reinstall. I made a vertual
directory for my php scripts under wwwroot. For some reason the
reinstall left a copy of php.exe in that directory. I used the
automatic windows installer file. Maybe I should do this manually.

looks like you are using a apache server. I do not see a httpd.conf
file in my PHP directory. Is that file specific to the apache install?
Where is the file located.

Thanks
Mike
