Protecting the php.ini file from being viewed

To prevent people viewing your php.ini file via a browser, a few lines need to be pasted into the .htaccess file.

  1. Log in to the cPanel
  2. Click on "File Manager"
  3. Open the public_html folder (click on the folder icon next to public_html)
  4. Click on .htaccess and then select the "Edit File" option on the right hand of the window
  5. Paste the following code into the bottom of the file:

    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all

  6. Click "Save"

Now your php.ini file is protected, which can help php crackers from finding exploits on your site.
