Very interesting. While I took a lot of time to get PHP-FPM to work I
learned a lot.
That begs the question was it worth it? I think it was worth the time.
I improved a few skills and learned how to configure PHP-FPM running on
Apache. This process helped me understand modern day LAMP hosting. The
last time I configure a web server was before CentOS made it's exit.
Configuring a LAMP server under CentOS was considerably easier. As I
recall under CentOS it was a 3 step process. 1) create a SSH user,
Create a docroot off the home directory, And create the Apache virtual
host configuration. In this case the SSH user is also the docroot owner.
This makes it easy to upload/download/and edit files as that user.
Today things are configure differently and that is the reason for
PHP-FPM.
Today the default Docroot owner is www-data. That means one cannot
upload/download/or edit files owned by www-data. PHP-FPM makes it
possible to create an SSH user who is the docroot owner. This makes it
possible to use Visual Studio Code for remote editing...etc
I'm of the opinion that all PHP developers should have the skills to
build a local development environment using not-routable IP's and
non-routable domains.
I've spent a lot of time on the Ubuntu command line and doing so has
refreshed some very stale skills and has helped me learn some new ones.
Thank you Alexander, and everyone else, for taking this journey.
