[Sorry about replying to my own thread here]
I've looked in php_mysql.c in the PHP source distribution, and it looks like
the "mysql.____" php.ini variables that are recognized are hard-coded.
Okay ... Is there any other way to get PHP to pick up these three values?
My understanding of how the MySQL client looks for config files is:
1. /etc/my.cnf (or, if not found ...)
2. MYSQLDATADIR/my.cnf (or, if not found ...)
3. $HOMEDIR/.my.cnf
Does anyone know if the PHP Apache module would pick up ".my.cnf" when
Apache switches to its non-root user account? If so, would any values found
there be passed along to PHP's internal mysql client?
Thanks,
Clay
