Help a PHP newb ... php.ini

[xgoannax]

How do I save this file in Mac OS X? I'm using Text Wrangler to open the file. When I try and save it, I get an error saying I don't have permission.

I'm a bit of newb to both Mac and PHP, so if someone can help out I'd be most appreciative.

Thx.

There is a video tutorial that helps set up php in mac http://www.lynda.com/home/DisplayCourse.aspx?lpk2=435

The video in that link may not be free, but there is some clip which free. If the needed video is not free you can get the title then search and download from some other source

Thanks for your help, but really I'd prefer not to sign up to a new site and then sit through a whole video tutorial just to find out how to enable writing permission for that system directory, which is probably a 1 second task.

Can someone that knows just tell me? Please? I'm sure it's a simple thing if you know how...

Thanks.

I do not have a Mac but I assume php.ini is in a folder you do not have permission to write to, so you must open it using root permissions. Probably sudo though the command line.

Yeah, the problem was that I couldn't see the folder. I found a terminal command last night that made them all visible, so it's no problem, fixed.

Cheers.
