CLI PHP configuration

Question

I'm getting a Deprecated warning despite the following setting in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

I don't see a CLI specific php.ini, Do I need to create create one? Where else would this setting be coming from?

error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_DEPRECATED 

Answer 1

Which distribution?

/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini - try /etc/php5/cli/php.ini if it's present or try from shell #php -i | grep php.ini and edit this file.

Answer 2

Check PHP's documentation about the configuration files.

In Gentoo Linux, the configuration for CLI PHP is under /etc/php/cli-php5.
