Did You supplied a PHPIniDir into Apache configuration script to point to the
correct INI file location?
Does Your settings at phpinfo(); page looks correct even if there are wrong
"Used INI file" mentioned in the start of page?

I'm asking cause I had similar issue on Windows.
PHP told me that it read the %WinDir%\php.ini while there are no php.ini
at all, and actual settings were taken from the correct ini file in the
PHPIniDir directory.
