Message:

I have a fresh Pop!OS 20.10 (Basically Ubuntu for those not familiar with Pop!OS). I've installed Apache, php 7.2, 7.4 & 8.0. Each version is running as FPM and each service is up and running. I have several vhosts setup and using FilesMatch to indicate which version of php should run on each host.

The problem is they all show php 8.0 when running phpinfo() no matter what the vhost config says. Anyone have any ideas?

Here's one of the host files:

<VirtualHost zr1.local:80>

<FilesMatch \.php$> # Apache 2.4.10+ can proxy to unix socket 

    SetHandler "proxy:unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost/" 

</FilesMatch> 

DocumentRoot "/var/www/zr1/web"

ServerName zr1.local

<Directory "/var/www/zr1/web">

    AllowOverride All

    Options +FollowSymLinks

    Order allow,deny

    Allow from all

    <IfModule mod_rewrite> 

        RewriteEngine On

        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

        RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /app.php [QSA,L]

    </IfModule> 

</Directory>

My Answer:
and 8.0 using PHP-FPM. I want to use different versions of PHP for different directories on my server.

I have set up my Apache virtual hosts to use PHP-FPM for each version of PHP like so:



SetHandler "proxy:unix:/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost/"





SetHandler "proxy:unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost/"





SetHandler "proxy:unix:/run/php/php8.0-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost/"



However, when I try to access a PHP file in a directory that should be using a specific version of PHP, it always defaults to the latest version installed (in this case, PHP 8.0).

I have checked that the PHP-FPM pools are running correctly and that the socket files exist in the specified locations. I have also restarted Apache after making changes to the virtual host files.

I'm not sure why the FilesMatch directive is not working as expected. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
