edited php.ini now php wont load up (i think)

[AlternativeWeb]

I did the "locate php.ini" command and there was a list in different location, so I tired to edit this one:

/usr/lib64/kloxophp/zend/etc/php.ini

I changed the max upload limit allowed to 5M
then i ran the command
"service httpd restart"

and now my forum isn't loading.
It seems like php isn't working at all.

What steps can I take from here to find out whats wrong?










EDIT:

This is the output after I ran this command:
[root@server ~]# php --ini

How would I go about correcting this?

if you have made a backup of file before editing rollback.
you can set the limit from kloxo.

or try editing this: /etc/php.ini

i didn't make any backups. i didn't think changing the max upload limit would do any harm, since i could always just edit it back to the default value.. . so i thought, but i guess editing the wrong php.ini file lead it to using the wrong one as default.


what do i need to edit in /etc/php.ini?
i'm not even sure where to start

I'm not sure if this does any harm, but I "think" I got it working again.


I end up copying every missing ".so" from:
/usr/lib64/php/modules/

and copied it to:
/usr/lib/php/modules/

Now everything seems to be working as it should, but is there a chance this may cause problems down the line?

[Lock Down]

You need to find where those missing php modules are located like curl.so and either copy them in that location or check the php.ini for those extensions and the extension directory they are supposed to load from.

you can find the location of the curl.so by using this command in ssh

find / -name curl.so

Edit:

Nice work. That will solve the problem.
