mysqli.default_pw

INIINI default value changed in 8.4

MySQLi: mysqli.default_pw — Default password for mysqli_connect() (doesn't apply in safe mode). Note that this is generally a bad idea to store passwords in this file. Any user with PHP access can run 'echo get_cfg_var("mysqli.default_pw") and reveal this password! And of course, any users with read access to this file will be able to reveal the password as well.

Default value empty
Development value empty
Production value empty

Modifiability: INI_ALL - The mysqli.default_pw INI directive can be configured anywhere, including php.ini files, ini_set calls, Apache .htaccess files, per-directory .ini files, etc.
