[Unix/Mac OS][Apache][PHP] - change configuration File (php.ini) Path

Question

I have two php.ini :

one regular in /usr/local/php5/lib/php.ini
one for my CLI /usr/lib/php.ini

The regular one works fine and load all the extensions I need, whereas the CLI one refuse to load some extensions (such as pdo.so) :

Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20100525/pdo.so' - dlopen(/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20100525/pdo.so, 9): image not found in Unknown on line 0

I'd like to change the Configuration File (php.ini) Path of my CLI to make it point on the regular one (and then solve the extension loading problem) but I can't find how to make it on an UNIX system.

Make the second one a symbolic link to the first. This is done using:

ln -s [TARGET_FILE] [SYMLINK_NAME]

If your non-CLI php.ini is /etc/php.cgi.ini and your CLI php.ini is /etc/php.cli.ini, you'd be doing ln -s /etc/php.cgi.ini /etc/php.cli.ini

The CLI php.ini links on the regular one but still can't load the extensions : > PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20100525/pdo.so' - dlopen(/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20100525/pdo.so, 9): image not found in Unknown on line 0

Can you check where the actual PHP extension dir is pointing to on both CGI and CLI?

CGI is pointing /usr/local/php5/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20100525, CLI is pointing /usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20100525/

Then your problem is that you are using two completely different builds of PHP. Build both in the same fashion - or specify the extension dir explicitely in php.ini.

Do you think it's possible to specify another version of PHP to the CLI ? Is there a configuration file where I can specify it such httpd.conf for Apache in CGI ?
