i have no idea what a command like

Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin\mysqladmin" -p -u root shutdown

is doing in a php.ini file

have a look at the php.ini files in the distribution from php.net and modify to your needs.

jpadie, the php.ini that i have came with the installation i downloaded from PHP's page. i havent changed it except added a few extensions. should i remove that line from php.ini?

i'd be truly gobsmacked if a php.ini downloaded in the php distros contain commands like mysql shutdown. i'd recommend d/ling a new one.
