Creating php conf and load files

**cmnorton** · April 6th, 2011

I need to create .conf and .load files for php. PHP is installed and I've verified PHP with test.php <?php
print_r (phpinfo());
?>

Is there boilerplate available for creating the .load and .conf files? I am having trouble finding it in what's been installed.

Thanks.

As a long-time PHP user, I must admit I haven't the foggiest idea what a .conf or a .load file might be. PHP's configuration is managed by php.ini. Care to point to an example of what you're asking about?

I finally figured it out.

For some reason with Ubuntu 10.04 Apache's directories got sub-divided. You used to put a load module command directly into the httpd.conf or apache2.conf. No more; you're expected to drop modules, .conf and .load into /etc/apache2/mods-available and soft links created in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled. The .conf file might contain configuration information if needed. The .load file contains the LoadModule directive.
