Loaded Configuration File:
/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
Scan this dir for additional .ini files:
/etc/php5/apache2/conf.d
Additional .ini files parsed:
/etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/gd.ini, /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/intl.ini,
/etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/mcrypt.ini, /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/mysql.ini,
/etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/mysqli.ini, /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/pdo.ini,
/etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/pdo_mysql.ini,
/etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/xcache.ini
So I don't see the content of the /etc/php5/conf.d/ directory here, with
files as: @10-pdo.ini, @20-curl.ini, ..., @20-xmlrpc.ini.
For Moodle installation both curl and xmlrpc are needed.
