Where are ini files on MacOsX Sierra?
I've just bought new MacBook Pro. Take a look on what php -i | grep ini returns:
prompt> php -i | grep ini
Configuration File (php.ini) Path => /etc
Scan this dir for additional .ini files => (none)
Additional .ini files parsed => (none)

And this is what happens when I run php --ini
prompt> $ php --ini
Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /etc
Loaded Configuration File: (none)
Scan for additional .ini files in: (none)
Additional .ini files parsed: (none)
It seems there current php is not loading any php.ini file. Is it possible?
Answer
Current versions of Mac OS X do not ship with a php.ini. PHP uses internal defaults for all settings.
There is a sample configuration file installed at /etc/php.ini.default. If you need to customize PHP settings, you can use that file as a template to create a configuration file at /etc/php.ini. PHP will read settings from that file if it's present.
