Missing php.ini after apt-get install php5

Question

I just installed php5 as root via apt-get install php5, and for whatever reason I can't find my php.ini file.

Running locate php.ini or ls /etc/ | grep php.ini both yield no results.

Is there anything I'm missing here?

Answer 1

Run sudo updatedb in your terminal and try locate php.ini.

Or you can find php.ini under /etc/php5/apache2 or /etc/php5/cli/.
