Enable PHP-FPM

NOTE: The Approach A sections referred to below do not apply to Bitnami native installers. Users of Bitnami native installers should refer only to the Approach B sections.

PHP-FPM is disabled by default. To enable it, follow these steps:

• Enable the PHP-FPM service: Depending on your installation type, run the following commands:

  • Approach A (Bitnami installations using system packages):

      $ sudo mv /etc/monit/conf.d/php-fpm.conf.disabled /etc/monit/conf.d/php-fpm.conf
      $ sudo gonit reload
    

  • Approach B (Self-contained Bitnami installations):

      $ sudo mv installdir/php/scripts/ctl.sh.disabled installdir/php/scripts/ctl.sh
    

• Start PHP-FPM:

    $ sudo installdir/ctlscript.sh start php-fpm
  

• Enable PHP-FPM configuration in Apache. Update the installdir/apache2/conf/httpd.conf file and disable the php7 module:

    #LoadModule php7_module modules/libphp7.so
  

• In the same file, disable the mpm_prefork module:

    #LoadModule mpm_prefork_module modules/mod_mpm_prefork.so
  

• In the same file, enable the mpm_event module:

    LoadModule mpm_event_module modules/mod_mpm_event.so
  

• Restart Apache:

    $ sudo installdir/ctlscript.sh restart apache
