Topic: Change PHP settings

[jerryh]

As a newbie I think I've missed something fundamental here.
Can anybody help Please

I needed to change some PHP settings so I copied
20ResourceLimits,   40DataHandling,    60FileUploads
from
/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/php.ini/
to
/etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/php.ini

Using pico I set
max_execution_time:      300
post_max_size:       32M
upload_max_filesize:    32M
and saved the files then a reboot.

Is there something else I needed to do as the custom templates do not seem to have been applied.

Yes, expand the template

/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/php.ini
then reboot (which would restart services)
or you could just restart the applicable service
/etc/ini.d/servicename restart

alternatively the command that will cover all situations is:
make your changes
then
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event reboot

Having said the above you should note that there are db commands for those settings:

/sbin/e-smith/config setprop php MaxExecutionTime 1800
/sbin/e-smith/config setprop php MemoryLimit 100000000
/sbin/e-smith/config setprop php PostMaxSize 20000000
/sbin/e-smith/config setprop php UploadMaxFilesize 20000000

/etc/e-smith/events/actions/conf-php

/etc/init.d/httpd-e-smith graceful

Thanks for your help.

I did notice there were commands for this but wasn't sure if they would update the existing template or create a custom one.

I've just started 'playing' with Linux and never seem to do things the easy way. But do learn a lot.

Are these db commands documented somewhere? I have searched and search, but could not find anything....

contribs.org is a good attempt at bringing to one place the many scattered HOWTOs and contribs from many different authors. While not everything is on contribs.org, you would do well to have a slow read of ALL the contributors folders and review their contents. You will be surprised at the extent of what you will find, including a HOWTO that detailed these commands.
