Accepted Answer

Webmin php.ini files for each virtual server are located in user’s etc directory. Path is in following format,

/home/AdminUser/etc/php7.0/php.ini

Change AdminUser to your domains admin user and open it with nano.

Hello friend!

The best course of action may be to create a phpinfo.php file in the same directory as your website, load it in browser, and search the page for php.ini. That would tell you the path of the currently loaded php.ini file, and you could edit it there. This is the only code you need in the phpinfo.php file:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Kind Regards, Jarland
