Hi Christian: Result: "No Input File Specified" First, thanks for spending the time to explain this to me. To some extent you are saying what I had already thought but I figured I must be missing something! The details: Your second example seems to match exactly what I want to do so I cut and pasted from your memo to be sure of no typing errors. ProxyPassMatch "^/.*\.php(/.*)?$" fcgi://127.0.0.1:9015/httpd/iliffe/ I note that there is no '/$1' ending on your directive, which differs from the wiki example. So, I ran strace and here is what was actually requested (about 24000 lines skipped here): --------------------------- lstat("/httpd/iliffe//i_phpinfo.php", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=213, ...}) = 0 29999 10:06:25 lstat("/httpd/iliffe", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 29999 10:06:25 lstat("/httpd", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=141, ...}) = 0 29999 10:06:25 lstat("/httpd/iliffe/.user.ini", 0x7ffffb866e90) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) ---------------------------- Notice that the initial lstat is correct, (ignoring the double '/', but this doesn't seem to cause a problem) and the response is 0, indicating that it got the file OK. So, why does it continue to stat the subdirectory and the root directory? And what is the .user.ini that it needs? Just to be complete, here is the PHP log entry: [18-May-2017 10:06:25] WARNING: [pool www] child 29999 said into stderr: "ERROR: Unable to open primary script: /httpd/iliffe//i_phpinfo.php (No such file or directory)" and the httpd log entry: [Thu May 18 10:06:25.958856 2017] [proxy_fcgi:error] [pid 29694:tid 140326128224000] [client 206.248.138.118:49284] AH01071: Got error 'Unable to open primary script: /httpd/iliffe//i_phpinfo.php (No such file or directory)\n and, just to show it does exist: namei /httpd/iliffe/i_phpinfo.php f: /httpd/iliffe/i_phpinfo.php d / d httpd d iliffe - i_phpinfo.php this last done from user phpfpm which is the user/group that php-fpm is running under. Seems that there is something I don't have but I have revisited the documentation a number of times, especially the wiki, and there is nothing that suggests I need any .ini files.
