Here, I will discuss on how to enable custom php.ini on your cpanel servers running EA4.
Normally what we do is to find the php.ini file and copy it to your home directory and change the values in php.ini which was copied in home directory and it should work. In the case of EA4, this wont be working. We have to follow the steps given below.
Find whether local.ini file is present in the configuration directory.
/opt/cpanel/ea-php/root/etc/php.d/
Copy server php.ini to your home directory and modify the parameters that are needed.
[root@server public_html]# cp /opt/cpanel/ea-php56/root/etc/php.ini /home/abs/public_html
[root@server public_html]# chown abs.abs /home/abs/public_html/php.ini
There are certain situations where local.ini file doesn't exists on php configuration folder. In that case, we would need to follow the steps given below to generate local.ini
Now custom php.ini should be working fine on your cPanel EA4 servers.
Notes :
* Ensure that you dont use suphp_configpath in .htaccess
* Loaded configuration file in phpinfo page wont be changed to custom one but the changed in cutom php.ini should be reflected in phpinfo page.

[root@server public_html]# echo 'user_ini.filename = "php.ini"' > /opt/cpanel/ea-php56/root/etc/php.d/local.ini
[root@server public_html]# /scripts/restartsrv_httpd
