Is there a particular reason you're attempting a complete customisation?
If you just want to get at your php.ini, see my signature.

That would be perfect because all I need to do is enable the MBString feature. The upgrade was an extra.
However, at this point I'm getting a 500 Internal Server error.
Is there any type of diagnostics, or refresh for the original PHP install that's on my account? I didn't make any changes to the /usr/local/bin/php folder, so I'm thinking the issue is with the system seeing that install (v5.0.3).
I uploaded the dh_phpini.php file. It's located at: www.hauntedhamilton.com/dh_phpini.php
Thanks!
UPDATE:
Got it to run, however with the new .htaccess file, I'm getting the 500 error again.
Thanks.Edited by dcumerlato on 11/24/08 02:44 PM (server time).

Yes, remove any AddHandler edits you made to .htaccess in the domain folder and delete the folders created by the script you ran previously. This will revert your environment back to the default DreamHost PHP environment.

Thanks you for all your help.
After removing all of the wayward PHP files, the install reverted back to my updated PHP version (v5.2.6), with the MBString enabled. The app that needed it is working great.
You've been a great help.
