I've installed Apache with FastCgi module, and PHP-fpm on a Centos server.
I configure FastCgi with an external server using the socket option:
FastCgiExternalServer /var/www/cgi-bin/test/php.fcgi -socket /var/run/php5-fpm.sock -pass-header Authorization -idle-timeout 3600
When I start my services (httpd and php-fpm) I got an error 500 when I request my helloWorld-test-page. But if I add write access to every user on my php5-fpm.sock file my hello world page works fine ! So I thought it's the good configuration...
But as soon as my services restart I saw my socket's permissions automatically updated and then my test-page doesn't works anymore:
srw-rw---- 1 root root 0 Nov 9 23:30 php5-fpm.sock
What is the good configuration for a socket file, and do you know what I should configure to make it definitive?
You can control the permissions via the php-fpm "pool" config:
# /etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf
listen.owner = apache
listen.group = apache
listen.mode = 0666
The owner and group should line-up with the owner of the httpd processes.
