A PHP info page provides detailed information about the PHP configuration and settings on your server. It's a useful tool for developers and system administrators to diagnose PHP-related issues and ensure that PHP is properly installed and configured. Here's how you can create a PHP info page using the file manager in a hosting account:

Step 1: Log in to your Hosting Account¶

1. Open your web browser and go to your hosting accounts login URL. cPanel is typically found at example.com:2083 and DirectAdmin is typically found at example.com:2222

2. Log in to your hosting account using your username and password.

3. After logging in, find and access the "File Manager" option in your hosting control panel.

Step 2: Create the PHP Info File¶

1. In the File Manager, navigate to the directory where you want to create the PHP info page. This is typically the "public_html" or "www" directory, which is the root directory of your website.

2. Click on the "Create New File" button within the file manager.

3. Enter a file name for the PHP info page. For example, you can name it phpinfo.php

4. Click the "Create" or "Save" button to create the php file.

Step 3: Edit the PHP Info File¶

1. After creating the phpinfo.php file, right click the file > "Edit" the file.

2. Add the following PHP code to the phpinfo.php file and then save it:

<?php
// Show all PHP information
phpinfo();
?>

Step 4: Access the PHP Info Page¶

1. Open your web browser.

2. Enter the URL of the PHP info page in the address bar. The URL should be something like example.com/phpinfo.php, where "example.com" is your actual domain name and "phpinfo.php" is the file name you created in Step 2

3. The PHP info page will be displayed, showing detailed information about your PHP configuration, modules, environment, and more.

Step 5: Remove the PHP Info Page (Optional)¶

1. For security reasons, it's a good practice to remove the PHP info page once you have gathered the necessary information.

2. Go back to the File Manager, find the phpinfo.php file and delete it.
