TUTORIAL: PHP selector for PHP 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4 for Debian & Ubuntu (and optionally directly nginx-PHP-FPM)

Dpeca, thank you for your support.
I launched a test server with Debian 9 as the base OS and installed Vesta on it and installed the scripts, I am getting the same issue still.
Any suggestions on where to look to help troubleshoot?

Also Are you installing your script on a bare Debian 9 Vesta install?

I tested on both baremetal and virtualized Debian 9.4... works as expected.
Do you install default Vesta, with Apache+nginx?

Dpeca,
I just retested with a clean installation and copied line by line your instructions.
It is working for me now, so I must have an error in what I copied from you as I had placed everything in a shell script file originally.

Thank you for your help.

Glad to see it is working on your server now :)

Just tested on Debian8, works fine.

Maybe, only on Debian8, in some cases, Apache is not able to connect to FPM.
If that happen, then one additional step should be performed:
Please edit:
/usr/local/vesta/data/templates/web/apache2/PHP-FPM-7x.tpl
/usr/local/vesta/data/templates/web/apache2/PHP-FPM-7x.stpl
(where 7x is desired version)

and uncomment mod_ruid2 block:

Code: Select all

    <IfModule mod_ruid2.c>
        RMode config
        RUidGid %user% %group%
        RGroups www-data
    </IfModule>

and then restart Apache:

Code: Select all

service apache2 restart

and change Apache template to default, and then set it again to PHP-FPM-7x.

Dpeca,
This is also commented out on Debian 9 from what I am seeing.
Should this also be enabled on Debian 9 or is it enabled elsewhere?

Also are these templates available in any repo I can fork or watch?

On Debian9 it should be commented.
No need to uncomment it.

For now templates are not included in any repo.

Very thanks :)

I was trying to change my php.ini settings but its not changing at all. I have changed it from template directory. PHP-FPM-56.sh. What have I done wrong?

Path to php.ini is /etc/php/5.6/fpm/php.ini
After you change it, you need to restart FPM:

Code: Select all

service php5.6-fpm restart

Dpeca,
a few PHP modules are renamed and consolidated, plus mcrypt is deprecated. Please see my recommendation below and edit your post.

Code: Select all

apt install -y php7.2-apcu php7.2-fpm php7.2-memcache php7.2-memcached php7.2-xml php7.2-zip php7.2-mysqli php7.2-mysql php7.2-curl php7.2-mbstring php7.2-json php7.2-gd php7.2-intl php7.2-mcrypt php7.2-xsl php7.2-soap php7.2-common php7.2-readline php7.2-cli php7.2-opcache php7.2-bcmath php7.2-dom php7.2-PDO php7.2-SimpleXML php7.2-iconv php7.2-sqlite3

Code: Select all

E: Unable to locate package php7.2-mcrypt

The new command that works for me without notices is:

Code: Select all

apt install -y php7.2-fpm php7.2-common php7.2-memcached php7.2-xml php7.2-zip php7.2-mysql php7.2-curl php7.2-mbstring php7.2-json php7.2-gd php7.2-intl php7.2-xsl php7.2-soap php7.2-readline php7.2-cli php7.2-opcache php7.2-bcmath php7.2-dom php7.2-pdo php7.2-iconv php7.2-sqlite3
