php.ini没有在Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS上重新加载

Question

Im trying to change something in php.ini - but after editing, saving the file and restarting apache no changes is updated.

I'm on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS

• I have used phpinfo.php to locate the file in use: /etc/php/7.0/fpm/php.ini

• Changing that file through terminal, updating short_open_tag from Off to On, and saving the file.

• Typing service apache2 restart to make the changes go live

But no changes is updated. From phpinfo I can still see that short_open_tag is Off.

What am I missing here?

Answer 1

since you mention fpm, you need to restart fpm not apache, on debian based should be close to :

sudo service php7.0-fpm restart

or just

sudo service php-fpm restart

reload can also do it instead or restart.
