Dude, where's my php.ini? A few years ago I installed Apache 2.2x and PHP 5.3.1 on a Linux server I maintain. I used .tar.gz's and built them as instructed (instead of rpms and what-have-you). And all was fine. Today I need to install this which seems like a PHP library. I went through all the steps up to make install, and I find ibm_db2.so in $PHP_HOME/lib/extensions/somecomplicatedname/ibm_db2.so The great catch is the last step is to configure php.ini but there is NO php.ini on my system. Horror of horrors.
