What is the best way to create a php.ini

I want to change the sites ability to upload a file larger then 8M

Should I just create a blank file php.ini, place teh following in it and upload to root?

upload_max_filesize = 20M

Hi Salmon

Yes, that is correct. Upload it to public_html or any subdirectory that you want those settings to apply to.

If you want it to work for the entire site, you can do this:

Add the following line to the .htaccess file:

suPHP_ConfigPath /home/cpuser/path/to/php.ini

Then the php.ini will be used by all of that account's scripts / subdirs by default.

It prevents the need for many php.ini files.
