105<h2 id="php.ini">php.ini</h2>
106<p>PHP settings are defined in:</p>
107<ul>
108<li>a main configuration file, usually found under <code>/etc/php5/php.ini</code>; some distributions provide different configuration environments, e.g.
109<ul>
110<li><code>/etc/php5/php.ini</code> - used when running console scripts</li>
111<li><code>/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini</code> - used when a client requests PHP resources from Apache</li>
112<li><code>/etc/php5/php-fpm.conf</code> - used when PHP requests are proxied to PHP-FPM</li>
113</ul></li>
114<li>additional configuration files/entries, depending on the installed/enabled extensions:
115<ul>
116<li><code>/etc/php/conf.d/xdebug.ini</code></li>

131<li><code>/var/www/test/phpinfo.php</code></li>
132</ul></li>
133<li>make sure the script is readable by the web server user/group (usually, <code>www</code>, <code>www-data</code> or <code>httpd</code>)</li>
134<li>access the script from a web browser</li>
