========================================
1. Changes made to default configuration
========================================
- The default_charset setting now defaults to UTF-8.
It was ISO-88590-1 before, so if you were relying
on the default, you will need to add:
default_charset = iso-8859-1
to your php.ini to preserve pre-PHPX.Y behavior.
- We now check at compile time if /dev/urandom or /dev/arandom
are present to provide non-blocking entropy to session id
generation. If either is present, session.entropy_file
now defaults to that file and session.entropy_length defaults
to 32. If you do not want extra entropy for your session ids
for some reason, add:
session.entropy_file=
session.entropy_length=0
to your php.ini to preserve pre-PHPX.Y behavior.
