Question

I have a centOS machine with cPanel. We have compiled PHP with mb_string and it works fine. We want to disable it in all hosting accounts except one, So we have disabled it in php.ini , but want to enable it in the specific host.

I know this is possible with apache’s .htaccess file. But how, and what commands? Any insights?

Thanks !

I don’t think you can manipulate the extension/module itself via htaccess. Sure, you can adjust values, but the extension needs to be loaded for the values to have any effect.

Perhaps you can do with a per-user php.ini set-up?
