/etc/php.ini not being read on fastcgi?
<p>On my DV from MediaTemple running Centos 5.8 I installed APC.</p>

<p>I then added <code>extension = "apc.so"</code> to <code>/etc/php.ini</code> so APC will be enabled for all existing and future sites on the server.</p>

<p>When I checked <code>php.info</code> still no APC showing up.</p>

<p>I removed the line and added it to <code>/var/www/vhosts/example.com/etc/php.ini</code> and then checked phpinfo which was running in example.com and APC showed up. However, I don't of course want to have to add this each time to every domain.</p>

<p>Is there a reason why /etc/php.ini isn't picking it up? I restart httpd, do I need to restart it more?</p>

<p>Or if for some reason with FastCGI it has to be in each domain php.ini is there a way to get it added to that template?</p>

<p>Also the server uses the default plesk 11.</p>
