Trouble Finding php.ini file for Wordpress
Hey Guys, I brought a ReadyNAS a few weeks back, I managed to get the Wordpress app installed onto the system, All seems to be working well until I try and upload a theme for Wordpress, I ge...
If you are using the default volume name (data), then you will likely find php.ini in \\nasipaddress\data\.apps
First you will need to access that folder with NAS admin credentials using SMB. The .apps folder itself is also a hidden folder.
Second, when you edit it, be careful to use an editor that preserves linux format conventions. Notepad++ does this, the Microsoft Notepad app does not. OSX systems (macs) use the same txt format convention as linux, so if you are using a mac, this is not an issue.
Thanks Stephen, Im logged into the ReadyNAS with admin credentials but i am not too sure how to do it using SMB (im a complete beginner with this stuff) is this an additional program i need to install to my PC (Windows 10), i have activated it in my settings if that is what you mean?
And after logging in to the admin page, if i go to the address \\READYNASIP\data\.apps to find the php.ini i get the following message "The requested URL /data/.apps was not found on this server."
You have said that the folder is hidden, is there a way i can unhide it?
Thanks again for your help.

You need to be using the admin credentials in file explorer (logging into the web browser as admin won't do it).
One way is to run cmd, and then
net use * /delete
net use t: \\READYNASIP\data\.apps /user:admin NASADMINPASSWORD
That will map the .apps folder to drive letter T on the PC. Note the first command just removes any existing SMB connections to the NAS - it doesn't delete anything.
I just tried as you explained above, and now im getting this error in Command Prompt
"System Error 86 has occuredThe Specified Network Password is not correct"
im 90% sure the password i am using is correct as i can log into the web browser using the same password and username.
From looking around i found that System Error 86 is related to the 'LAN Manager Authentication Level".. I have no idea what it is or means. Any ideas?
The username has to be admin for this to work. Also be very careful on the direction of the slashes.
Does the time/date on the PC match the NAS?
