What is php.ini ?

The php.ini file is a special file for phpSuExec (pronounced php-soo-ec-sec).

The php.ini file is where you declare changes to your PHP settings. You can edit the existing php.ini, or create a new text file in any subdirectory and name it php.ini.

If you need a php.ini file for your account, please contact us via phone or live chat. We are glad to create a replete file for you.

Some common changes that you must make when moving from non-secure php environment to phpSuExec:

For example, if your site had these settings in a .htaccess file:

php_flag upload_max_filesize 10M
php_value post_max_size 10M
php_value max_execution_time 30


SuExec users must put them in a php.ini file instead. Here is the proper syntax:

upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 10M
max_execution_time = 30
