14.04 LTS has Apache 2.4.7 so you cannot use this : <FilesMatch "\.php$"> # Requires Apache 2.4.9 or later SetHandler "proxy:unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost/" # Requires Apache 2.4.10 and later SetHandler "proxy:fcgi://127.0.0.1:9000" </FilesMatch> So with 14.04 LTS you need to 1. Configure each VirtualHost with ProxyPassMatch ^/(.*\.php(/.*)?)$ fcgi://127.0.0.1:9000/your_path_to/htdocs/$1 2. In PHP5-FPM, use TCP instead of Unix Domain Socket (/etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/www.conf) listen = 127.0.0.1:9000 The alternative is to use mod_fastcgi but it's part of multiverse (disabled by default /etc/apt/sources.list) See also http://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/slides/AC2014-FastCGI.pdf 16.04 LTS is out but not all PHP applications are compatible with PHP 7 (like ibm_db2 is not yet ready https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69852) ** Bug watch added: bugs.php.net/ #69852 http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69852 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1411030 Title: backport support for unix domain sockets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/1411030/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
