I would also like so separate access and error logs by app, ie app1-access.log, app2-access.log etc. My original expectation was to call them through the same IP address followed by the directory of the app, ie aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd/app1, aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd/app2 etc. This does not work. My understanding is now that: - To use unique php versions would require separating the apps into individual VirtualHosts directives. Each VirtualHost directive can then call its unique php-fpm handler. - I now understand this cannot be done using just an IP address in the VirtualHost directive followed by app1, app2 etc. A domain name must be used. - There are workarounds which however do /not/ allow for different VirtualHost directives which my objective would requires, such as using ProxyPass, ProxyPass and Alias. Thus not a useable workaround. Therefore, it seems I need to pivot and use a common domain name instead of IP address: - Create multiple VirtualHost directives where the ServerName would be app1.domain.com, app2.domain.com. These can then be mapped to different directory trees. - This should allow for using a different php-fpm handler in each VirtualHost directive. Hopefully I made myself understandable but is my understanding correct? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
