Re: changes to php.ini file

You can NOT make hanges to the original (main) php.ini file. You can have your local php.ini file if you know how to create it.

In ANY case do not try to implement functions that are not precompiled in the server's php build, as you will only loose time

Hello Naval Design,
Thank you so much for your very accurate and timely response.
I really appreciate your time.
Unfortunately i received very negatively reply from customer support bluevoda and this is the reason i have raised this question in the forum.
Anyways your inputs have shown me some green signal for my new project otherwise i was planning to change the hosting service provider.

Thanks a lot once again.

regards
Satish

Re: changes to php.ini file

Please note that, as i said, some functions are usually disabled in shared hosting, for security reasons. Also, there are some limitations on the MySQL max_allowed_packet so you'd better check (with phpinfo() ) if your requirements are supported or not, otherwise a local php.ini file will not be able to override the default settings.
