Difference in my PHP.INI Settings
Posted: Mon Nov 02, 2009 2:13 am
I have a website with MySQL database. Since my hosting service moved me to another server, I have noticed that database searches take slightly longer - long enough though, for users to bail out.
Before contacting my hosting sompany (who I still think are rather good), I did a comparison beween my old php.ini and my new php.ini settings.
I have tried to google the meaning of each setting, but I'm not sure if this is my problem. Can anyone here take a look at these few differences, to see if they may be the cause of my problem? (is it worth exploring: "session save path" and "magic_quotes_gpc"?)
session.save_path
OLD PHP.INI
session.save_path /tmp /tmp
NEW PHP.INI
session.save_path no value no value
http://uk3.php.net/manual/en/function.s ... e-path.php
--------------------------------------------------------------
allow_url_include
OLD PHP.INI
allow_url_include On On
NEW PHP.INI
allow_url_include Off Off
Okay, probably a security measure and I'm on a shared server.
--------------------------------------------------------------
detect_unicode
OLD PHP.INI
(nothing)
NEW PHP.INI
detect_unicode On On
I use charset=utf-8 in Joomla, Wordpress and Open Realty. I'm not sure what effect having "detect_unicode On" has
--------------------------------------------------------------
display_errors
OLD PHP.INI
display_errors Off Off
NEW PHP.INI
display_errors On On
--------------------------------------------------------------
magic_quotes_gpc
OLD PHP.INI
magic_quotes_gpc Off Off
NEW PHP.INI
magic_quotes_gpc On On
http://www.jimmysworld.org/article.html?aID=59
and
http://php.net/manual/en/security.magicquotes.php
--------------------------------------------------------------
upload_max_filesize
OLD PHP.INI
upload_max_filesize 6M 6M
NEW PHP.INI
upload_max_filesize 2M 2M
Thanks in advance of any help - gratefully received.
