Modify the php.ini of your Simple Hosting instance

If you need to modify the configuration file of your PHP instance, to a certain extent it is possible to do so.

Some parameters can't be changed. The list of these unmodifiable parameters is below.

Access your instance with SFTP and download the file /lamp0/etc/php/php-custom.ini Locally edit the file. putting in the values you want to change. Values that remain unmodified will remain at the defaults.​​( See default phpinfo). When you are satisfied with your version of the file, upload it to your instance, replacing the original (lamp0/etc/php/php-custom.ini).

To make your changes effective, you need to reboot your instance.

Here is the list of unmodifiable parameters and their default values. Entries in php-custom.ini for one of these settings in your will be ignored:
