PHP fun

Sometimes PHP is a pain. no, kinda always a pain.when you update PHP on your server and everything falls over, theme breaks, etc, you can roll back the php-fpm socket temporarily by editing the sites-available conf in nginx. Apache2 is a little different. sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/defaultxxxxxxxxxx 1sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/defaultChange the FastCGI backend to use the new (or old version) PHP-FPM socket, save and exit the filelocation ~ \.php$ {

 include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;

 fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;

}xxxxxxxxxx 1location ~ \.php$ {2 include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;3 fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;4}Run the configuration test$ nginx -t

xxxxxxxxxx 1$ nginx -t2​Restart the web server$ sudo service nginx restartxxxxxxxxxx 1$ sudo service nginx restartsee if that gets you going long enough to figure out why php is breaking your site.
