Check remote PHP settings

1. Create a file named phpinfo.php with the following content:

   <?php phpinfo(); ?>

2. Upload phpinfo.php to your remote server’s document root.

3. Open the file in your browser (e.g. http://www.example.com/phpinfo.php).

4. You will see the full PHP configuration.

   Security note

   Remove this file from your server immediately after running it, or protect it with an .htaccess access restriction. The script reveals server configuration details that could be exploited.
