<p>PHP settings are defined in:</p>
<ul>
<li>a main configuration file, usually found under <code>/etc/php5/php.ini</code>; some distributions provide different configuration environments, e.g.
<ul>
<li><code>/etc/php5/php.ini</code> - used when running console scripts</li>
<li><code>/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini</code> - used when a client requests PHP resources from Apache</li>
<li><code>/etc/php5/php-fpm.conf</code> - used when PHP requests are proxied to PHP-FPM</li>
</ul></li>
<li>additional configuration files/entries, depending on the installed/enabled extensions:
<ul>
<li><code>/etc/php/conf.d/xdebug.ini</code></li>
</ul></li>

<li><code>/var/www/test/phpinfo.php</code></li>
</ul></li>
<li>make sure the script is readable by the web server user/group (usually, <code>www</code>, <code>www-data</code> or <code>httpd</code>)</li>
