Hi Edgar, I found that I was wrong about .htaccess not working inside of <Directory> tag: RewriteMap and standard rewrite lookup of the user dirs goes here <Directory /PATH_TO_WWW/*> Standard directory conf goes here RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ fcgi://IP_OF_THE_FPM:FPM_PORT/$1 [P,L] </Directory> Basically the secret (for me at least) I needed to put rewrite rule that proxies through inside directory tags that are for common directory of the users with *. so if I have users in /var/www/$username , the directory tag should look like this: <Directory /var/www/*> TL;DR: use proxy rewirte rule inside of directory tags for the common users directory. Thank you very much, Sergei.
