Disable PHP Warning Message

I wanted to disable my warning message from my php installation. To do so

I need to configure my php.ini file. I searched on the internet but couldn’t find a direct answers where to change my php.ini on MacOS Catalina.

For MacOS Catalina the location of php.ini is located at /etc/

You can verify it by printing phpinfo() and look for “Loaded Configuration File (php.ini) path”

For my MacOS Catalina, the location of php.ini is located at /etc/. As you can see there is no php.ini is loaded (None).

To load your own php.ini, copy the default file into your new php.ini

sudo cp /etc/php.ini.default /etc/php.ini

1	sudo cp /etc/php.ini.default /etc/php.ini

Open the php.ini, in this case I’m using atom to open it.

sudo atom /etc/php.ini

1	sudo atom /etc/php.ini

Then change php error reporting into

error_reporting = E_ERROR

1	error_reporting = E_ERROR

Save it then restart apache.

sudo apachectl restart

1	sudo apachectl restart

Then check the php.ini file is loaded correctly by printing the phpinfo. It will shows /etc/php.ini at “Loaded Configuration File” row.

phpinfo loaded php ini at macos catalina

or you can run php –ini to see the loaded configuration file.

When you refresh the website, the warning php message will disappear.

You can use same technique for MacOS Big Sur on MacBook Pro M1.
