How to configure php with xmapp

XAMPP is a commonly used development environment suite that can be used to build PHP environments on Windows, Mac and Linux. This article will introduce how to set up PHP configuration in XAMPP.

1. Open the XAMPP control panel

First, open the XAMPP control panel and ensure that Apache and MySQL have been started. The control panel can be found in the installation directory after installing XAMPP. For example:

C:\xampp\xampp-control.exe (Windows)

/opt/lampp/share/xampp-control-panel/xampp-control-panel (Linux/Mac)

2. View the PHP configuration

Click the "Config" button in the control panel and select "PHP (php.ini)" in the drop-down menu. Through this file you can view and edit PHP configuration. Here we can change parameters in the PHP environment such as error reporting, PHP version and memory limits, etc.

As you can see, the PHP configuration file is divided into multiple different parts, such as "Error handling and logging", "Resource limits" and "Paths and Directories". The following introduces their functions and how to change their values:

1. Error handling and logging

In this section, we can change the level and level of error reporting in PHP How to store error logs.

By default, PHP's error reporting level (error_reporting) is set to E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE. If you need to suppress reporting of a certain level of errors, you can change to error_reporting=E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_DEPRECATED.

If you need to store PHP error logs, you can set log_errors to On and set error_log to the storage path of the error log. For example, error_log=C:\xampp\php\logs\php_error.log.

2. Resource limits

In this section, we can change PHP’s memory limit and upload file size limit, etc.

By default, PHP's memory limit (memory_limit) is set to 128M. If you need to increase it, you can change it to memory_limit=256M.

If you need to change the size limit of uploaded files, you can set upload_max_filesize and post_max_size to the desired size, such as upload_max_filesize=64M and post_max_size=64M.

3. Paths and Directories

In this section, we can change the include path of PHP and the storage path of temporary files, etc.

By default, PHP's include path (include_path) is set to ".", which means that PHP will search for include files starting from the current directory. If you need to add additional directories, you can add some of them to the include_path variable. For example, include_path=".:/php/includes".

If you need to use temporary files, please set upload_tmp_dir to the directory where these files are stored, for example, upload_tmp_dir="C:\xampp\tmp".

3. Save and restart

After changing the PHP configuration, you need to save these changes and restart the Apache server for the changes to take effect. When saving the configuration, you need to make sure that all changes are completed without errors.

The method to restart the Apache server is to click the "Stop" button in the XAMPP control panel, wait for the Apache server to stop, and then click the "Start" button to start the Apache server.

4. Conclusion

In this article, we learned how to set up the PHP environment in XAMPP and how to change PHP configuration variables. With these modifications, we can easily optimize and adjust the PHP environment to better suit our development needs.
