Do you have permissions to change this ini setting? Some hosting
companies disallow certain variables to be set through ini_set and only
allow them to be done via .htaccess, and some go even further by
disallowing certain ones to be changed at all. Have you tried it on a
different hosting (i.e. on your local machine) ?
