PHP Configuration - Locating and Editing php.ini (Apache, Nginx, PHP FPM)

PHP’s initialization file (php.ini) is responsible for configuring PHP. In this video we'll learn how to identify which php.ini file your system is using so you can make setting changes. This is done via the phpinfo function.Then, we’ll learn how to get your system to recognize any changes to your php.ini file by either restarting your server or reloading your PHP Handler.

Server types covered:
A local server running Apache via XAMPP
A live server running Apache
A live server running Nginx with the FPM / FastCGI PHP handler

The specific settings we’ll update in the php.ini file include upload_max_filesize and post_max_size. Both of these settings are often updated when you build a site that allows file uploads.
