Are you sure you're editing the correct file?

On my system, I have different php.ini files for different contexts --
cli vs. apache -- and for different versions, like so:

/etc/php/cli-php5.6/php.ini
/etc/php/cgi-php5.6/php.ini
/etc/php/fpm-php5.6/php.ini
/etc/php/apache2-php5.6/php.ini

/etc/php/cli-php7.1/php.ini
/etc/php/cgi-php7.1/php.ini
/etc/php/fpm-php7.1/php.ini
/etc/php/apache2-php7.1/php.ini

I have to put the config directives I want in all of them, as appropriate.
