Hello ;
I do this announcement to inform you that the support for PHP FPM has been integrated in our development branch (master). PHP FPM is a great alternative to fastcgi/fcgid and is almost the recommended way to run PHP applications in shared hosting environment, mostly for high-load servers.
Of course, you must keep in mind that the support for PHP FPM is still experimental. Therefore, I would like to thanks in advance all users that will help us to improve the default configuration provided for it.
How to switch to PHP-FPM
- Make a backup of your current data (optional)
- Make a clone of our git repository or do a pull if you already use it
- Run the i-mscp-autoinstaller script with the --reconfigure option and when you are asked about the server to use for the httpd service choose the 'apache_php_fpm' server.
NOTICE
The php5-fpm package is only available for Debian >= Wheezy and Ubunu >= Oneiric. To solve this problem, the i-MSCP installer will propose you to install the package from external repository when needed.
Thanks you for using i-MSCP.
