configure the php.ini on vagrant homestead

I want to allow short_open_tags in php.ini

I want to access to the php.ini on my vagrant box configured with homestead. I saw the php.ini file in /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini

But ... permission denied Is somebody knows ?

Thanks

I have tried to change the mentioned php.ini for over an hour.
I suggest to check first which php.ini is really loaded.
I have checked it with php -i.

In my case it was located in /etc/php/7.2/cli.

Just create ".user.ini" file (.user.ini files) in public/

[PHP]
short_open_tag = On

Here is how you grant read/write access to php.ini, modify it, save changes & reload nginx:

1. Navigate to folder containing php.ini: $ cd /etc/php5/fpm

2. Grant read/write access: $ sudo chmod -R ugo+rw php.ini

3. Open php.ini: $ vim php.ini

4. Enter edit mode: $ i

5. Edit stuff

6. Exit edit mode: Press ESC

7. Save & close php.ini: $ :x!

7.1 OPTIONAL: Exit without saving: $ :q

8. Navigate to home (not sure if this is actually necessary): $ cd ~

9. Reload/Restart nginx: $ sudo nginx -s reload

10.1 Reload/Restart php: $ sudo service php5-fpm restart

10.2 If using PHP 7 then use $ sudo service php7.0-fpm restart (Thanks & Credit to Richard in comments).

11. ???

12. PROFIT! (or is that joke really too old?)

Here is a screenshot:

git bash showing php.ini before & after getting read/write access

Remember if you run $ vagrant provision, it'll reset all configuration files. Just so you know.

EDIT

Super useful to know. You can search in vim by exiting input mode, and type $ /post_max_size or whatever you want to find.

Simply ssh in to the homestead environment:

ssh homestead

Then become the superuser by typing:

sudo su

Then you will be able to edit your php.ini.

Maybe you should use htaccess to this problem

If you dont have, make file .htaccess (with the dot in root) and write down

<IfModule mod_php5.c>
   php_value short_open_tag 1
 </IfModule>

Good hosting providers does not provide the enter into php.ini
