I needed to make some changes to my php.ini file. I've opened the file up using VIM, made the changes and now I need to save the file. The command I need to use is apparently :wq. How the hell do I send this command though, I seem to be stick in editing mode at the moment.

I'm using PuTTY if that makes any difference, plus I've never done anything like this before

Press Escape to exit edit mode, then type :wq!

That'll save and exit the file.

:w! will save and leave you in it, :q! will quit without saving.

also have you tried restarting your webserver afterwards? apachectl restart or call up the script from rc.d depending on what OS it is.

I turned it off globally then created a vhost.conf file in the conf folder in the subdomain I wanted then put in the jazz I needed to turn it off. That worked, but I didn't really want it turned off globally so I turned it on globally and tried using the vhost.conf file instead but that didn't work. Now I can't get it to work at all.

I reset the container after making the changes so they would come into effect.

Use it in the directory with your configs, it'll search for the term safe_mode in all the files.

I didn't write the correct thing in the vhost.conf file and I changed the location of the file to the domains conf folder as opposed to the subdomain. It works, not sure if I've done it right though

Ubuntu is a lot easier to use via the GUI though
