For IIS it would be much better to check against APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH: that would make .user.ini files and PHP applications really portable, regardless whether they reside under DOCUMENT_ROOT or not. On a side note: why did the PHP team decide not to include subfolders for the [PATH=] directive? Who wants to set settings just for a single folder but not for subdirectories? cheerio :: Arno .user.ini-files are not of much use when you use virtual directories or IIS applications outside the DOCUMENT_ROOT: in that case the settings are only valid for the directory, where the .user.ini file resides, but not for subdirectories, as PHP checks the path against DOCUMENT_ROOT and fails.

Currently we're using Plesk 8.6 for the site administration. I was wondering do you know of any problems that might occur if we where to implement this or would Plesk be unaffected by this? Kind regards, Philipp Hi,

nice article, i ran into this looking for a solution after one of our customers requested some changes to php.ini in a php5 site. Currently we’re using Plesk 8.6 for the site administration. I was wondering do you know of any problems that might occur if we where to implement this or would Plesk be unaffected by this?

Kind regards,
Philipp

It is not possible to redefine that. You can find the complete list of php.ini directives and their changeability in the <a href="http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ini.list.php" rel="nofollow">List of php.ini directives</a>.

Otherwise PHP will return a warning, which will result 500 error message. Also, as far as I know the PHP installer does not support side by side installation of PHP. However, IIS and FastCGI fully support side by side installations of PHP, but you will need to setup PHP manually. You can refer to <a href="http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/246/using-fastcgi-to-host-php-applications-on-iis-70/#PHP_Versioning" rel="nofollow">PHP Versioning</a> for more details how to setup several PHP versions on the same server.

Unfortunately, any sites I create to test the 5.3 keep returning a 500 error message. I set up the sites to just use the 5.3 handler however this doesn't seem to help. Is there some other configuration I need to do to run 5.3 along with 5.2?
